The headset has nothing to do with the BB for nearly any bike with 1 1/8th threadless headset a standard 68mm ISO BB will work the actual type and length BB needed will depend on the crank you chose. Hard to give more advise since your crank choices are nearly limitless. Your Ideal crank choice will depend on gearing SS/FG vintage or modern, geared which could be anything from 5 speed classic to a modern 8/9/10 with triple front.
