That IS spicy!
Oh, I also think Special B is a good idea. Perhaps it will give the Belgians the upper hand feeling more like home. Oh, and for the added complexity too.

Think I should simply split the victory in half and go with 2.25 # of each then?

I made a concept recipe and I called the style 'BWIPA' pronounced Bweepah.

That would work for me, I wouldn't suggest any more specialty grains, so it would have to come from one of the two and the victory seems like the likely suspect.
2.25lb sounds so big for special B, but I guess nothing about this beer is small.

Well, Barleywine IPA, but your's works too.
Basically very similar to a Barleywine, but with less specialty grains and is dry hopped liberally AFTER the aging period is complete. I have the recipe around here somewhere...

I like it, although I would lose the rice hulls if you can. Not sure what you are mashing in, but I am thinking room is going to be at a premium.
Also, just a thought that crossed my mind as I read it, but what about instead of making a starter with the belgian yeast and adding it in, you actually blended instead. As in, you reserve more wort (maybe a gal or two) and actually ferment it separately and mix the two when ferments are complete.
The thinking would be a more successful spicy yeast flavor introduction. Plus, then you wouldn't have to worry about a really violent ferment since your containers would be oversized for the primary.
