Hi Bob. Yes the threads are exactly English — something I was not expecting. After costing out a new BB and blah blah I went for an NOS Campy record crank set. Not super cheap, and there is shipping to boot. But I've been along this route before. The options: cheaper new parts. cheaper used parts, or the more expensive NOS TOTL.. Luckily I found the Campy BB shells and spindle to be in decent shape, otherwise Road Fan's advice would have ben my main focus. In fact, I'll file this stuff away for yet another build in the future.
