As a reference, see
http://www.whitneygallery.com/Olympus2/html/aditl2_30.html

I just printed several of these, and if memory serves, I got my best
results on an 11X14 with a 2 or 2.5 Ilford contrast filter on Ilford
Multigrade RC paper, exposed for 20 or 30 seconds at f/8 on a Beseler
23C II and developed in Dektol 1:2.  Of course, my original was shot
with a red filter, so it may be contrastier (is that a word?) than
your negs.
