    You've been time travelling again :) 2238 is looking nice but pushed if you know what I mean:) if you manage to get good blacks and white at 80 its going to look very graphic, good luck:)

    @charliedontsurf well I was sitting here last night scanning one of the ISO 80 negatives. I think I used the developer at box speed rather than push it, so they were splotchy. BUT as I was scanning, the first pass came up, and I though, that looks like a color negative. The second scan came up and I did a screen shot, and that DID look like a color negative. The JPG that came out looks like some other film entirely. The scanner was splitting out the red green and blue rather than combining them and it was coming out in color. I went back on some of the ISO 20 shots and I was able replicate that by skewing the red green and blue in the raw file. Weird. I posted it here i'll link it to you.
