I used this whenever I switched to different films/dilutions/temps.  Always
with Xtol:

Always a very good starting point, and sometimes, I didn't feel the need to
deviate.

Specifically, here's what I used to use from my notes:

Fuji Neopan 1600
    Xtol 1:1 for 7.5 mins at 68 F 
    Xtol 1:3 for 12 mins at 70 F
