Is It Even Possible????

I have a 2010 Scott CR1 comp and I want to throw a FSA SL-K Light crank and the MegaExo BB. I know that I probably won't be able to use the MegaExo BB, but is it even possible to use the cranks? I have gotten conflicting info on this but I think my choices are 1. Use the crank arms but I would need some sort of adapter. Or 2. I won't be able to use the cranks and need to find another option than the FSA that I have. Any help is appreciated.

There are two versions of that crank, one for an english bottom bracket (standard) and one for BB30 (which you do not have. If you have the standard version, there should be no reason you can;t use that crank if you have the right BB.

Okay just to clarify the BB on the Scott is a Shimano Dura Ace, and I am wondering if I can use an FSA SL-K Light crank with it. Or do I have to buy a new BB or is it not even possible to use the FSA stuff on the bike at all.
