An u use any type of malt for lambics and just do the protein rests with this malt cause I have a 50 lb bag I was hoping to use some of it with a spontaneous fermentation
 
I don't see what's wrong with this idea.

Hell, I use DME for my lambics.
 
Isn't 6 row known for having a very thick hull? If so, I would probably avoid a turbid mash because those high temps at the end are good for tannin extraction and with the extra hull that may invite undesirable tannin extraction.
 
Ok I thinking about doing four different rests glucan, protein, beta, alpha and mash out the highest temp beside the mash out would be 160 for thirty min
