Thanks for your help. It pointed me into the right direction. I finally
ended up with

\input fontinst.sty
\installfonts
\transformfont{ptmr8y}{\reencodefont{8y}{\fromafm{ptmr8a}}}
\transformfont{ptmb8y}{\reencodefont{8y}{\fromafm{ptmb8a}}}
\installfont{ptmbc8y}{ptmb8y,latin,8y}{8yc}{8y}{ptm}{b}{sc}{}
\installfont{tibsc}{ptmb8y,latin,8y}{8yc}{8y}{ptm}{b}{sc}{}
\installfont{ptmrc8y}{ptmr8y,latin,8y}{8yc}{8y}{ptm}{n}{sc}{}
\installfont{tirsc}{ptmr8y,latin,8y}{8yc}{8y}{ptm}{n}{sc}{}
\bye

where 8yc.etx was created from t1c.etx by replaying T1 by 8Y. That way
the fonts are based on ptmr8y / ptmb8y.

The entries in psfonts.map are:
  ptmb8y Times-Bold "TeXnANSIEncoding ReEncodeFont" <texnansi.enc
  ptmr8y Times-Roman "TeXnANSIEncoding ReEncodeFont" <texnansi.enc

Does it all look right to you?

Could something like "8yc.etx" be included in a future version of
fontinst, please?
