I am sure you already know that you cannot use the digital ICE feature on Kodachrome. Beyond that, the solution to your problem is Vuescan: http://www.hamrick.com I had tried it a couple of years ago and given up on it because of the then clunky interface and lack of preview, but now it is much improved in those respects, and it delivers vastly superior results with Kodachrome compared to Nikon Scan. The results with E6 and C41 are a wash IMO, and with B&W slightly better than Nikon Scan. In other words, Vuescan is as good as or better than Nikon Scan with all film types.
