campy crank / shimano cassette compatibility

Will a campagnolo crank like Victory (5 6 7 speed era) be compatible with an 8 speed shimano chain and cassette? What about campy record?

I am using friction shifters so the derailers are not an issue, but I am wondering if the tooth spacing between the campy crank and shimano cassette is compatible or not.

They will work fine. Chains didn't start getting narrower until 9 speed came along.
