When I was shooting B&W (many years ago now) I almost always had a yellow x2 filter as a permanent fixture on my lens. This helps to darken skies and differentiate between tones. On occasions I would use a red (x4) filter to get a more dramatic sky.
Have you considered Mamiya 645? I have a pair of Mamiya 645 Supers, lovely cameras although I haven't used them for a while now. But a lot easier to carry round than 6x7 cameras.
