I'd go with the TMZ or Delta 3200, shoot it at 1600 (one stop push) and it will 
provide a pretty usable contrast range.

I just printed a set of prints at 11x14" off D3200 shot at 1600 and developed 
in T-MAX (band shot under crap parra-floods), the grain is visible but it's far 
from objectionable. At a suitable viewing distance the grain disappears.
