The BB386 is a press fit assembly that has the diameter of the BB30 and the width of a 68 mm BB shell with screw in cups installed. Just guessing that the BB parts are just bearing cartridges like BB30. Since the shell is wider though, you have to use a long spindle crank like on a threaded BB with outboard cups. FSA makes the BB386EVO crank for this purpose.
