Uh... you -are- going to need a gonkulator, and the gonkulator-adjustment vise, ratchet, and calibrator...
What chemistry are you planning to use to soup the film in? We'd usually use heated (if I remember...) HC110 or Dektol, with what we called "constant gentle agitation." Cap it, and keep it moving... Then flood, then fix, and just open/dump in the big rinse sink... Not the world's best negs, but fast, and our process worked just fine at "room temperature" in a tent in Panama... Which you wanted to be out of as fast as possible.
