surely old pac lab is still processing old tri-x? as for the difference in the ASA ratng: that would be because B&W film is more sensitive to the blue part of the spectrum; expose it under tungsten light, and you've effectively reduced the sensitivity of your film, all other things being equal; to compensate for this you're asked to rate your film at 160 instead of 200, which would then compel you to open up your aperture about 1/3 of a stop.
