change campagnolo double to triple crankset

I bought a campagnolo triple crankset and campagnolo olympus BB 70-ss x3-s,124mm. Try to install on my gios torino.But the crank hit chain stays.
Is it because bought the wrong BB? I'm so confused that there's a lot of BB model, I don't know which one will fit correctly.
Can anyone help me out?

It can be tough to get a triple to work on a racing bike. Before denting the chain stays, I'd get a freewheel spacer and put it inside the fixed cup. This will give you a bit more room on the right side. See if that fixes the problem. You have the cups out and a freewheel spacer is cheap. Wheels manufacturing has good ones. I'd get one in stainless steel though and not aluminum.

Are you sure you have the spindle oriented correctly? It looks like that one is assymetric. That's a pretty long spindle, so I would expect it to work for you.

What size is your inner ring? It looks pretty big.

124mm is plenty long enough, unless your crankset is wallowed out.
