Maybe even the WLP 320

Stick with a German yeast strain...if you don't you're just making wheat beer...

So, does it look good, never made a Heffe... only wheats...

Brewpilot, Your grain bill looks good, however I agree with homebrewer 99, you need to use a heffe yeast. I used Wyeast 3638 and my beer turned out great! Good luck with your beer!
