I'd be interested to hear what EI and developing time others have found for these films in 35mm and 120. Some searching I did yesterday turned up a number of threads, including some here on Photrio, primarily related to Fomapan, that seemed to suggest EI50 would be about right as a starting point, but there's little info available for Kentmere.

FWIW, the Massive Development Chart gives EI50 and 9 minutes at 21C (1+1+100) and a few other combinations, but nothing at all for Kentmere 100, though it does list a lot of options for Kentmere in D76.

Fomapan 100 at around 50 for good shadow detail, pyrocat HD 1+1+100 8 minutes or so; a little longer if you like 'em beefy.

Sorry, can't help you with the Kentmere either.
 
Kentmere 100 (80 iso/ incident metering) in Pyrocat HD 1+1+100. 8.5min / 20°C....

 
If u have plenty of sun you could shoot at 100
Less 80 works in most cases
