The BB on the Vitus, IIRC when I built it, is Campy, English threaded, so I don't anticipate a problem. I'm considering going to a cartridge, definitely if there's a fit problem, but I'm hoping the Fuji is the same width so I don't have to change spindles.
Good to hear that you have an English threaded BB on the Fuji afterall. Like you said, all you need to look into will be getting the right spindle legnth/BB width to match your cranks for a proper chainline.
