I'm going with all grain. But the extract kit calls for 7 lbs of malt I guess at 10% that would be .7 lbs of syrup. Is that correct?

AHS American Wheat
All Grain: 5 lb Base Grains, 4.75 lb Specialty Grains
so 1 lb of Steens would be just a little over 10%

Think of it more in terms of gravity. It looks like that kit has an OG of 1.052, so you're looking at adding approximately 2.5-5 gravity points using the syrup. I'm not sure how much cane syrup adds, so that's something to determine.
ETA: And you will have to adjust for your system's efficiency as well. I want to say AHB assumes 65% or 70% efficiency on their all-grain recipes.
