How did you replace the outer edge of the chain?
Shimano has always been parallel, but I think on Campy of that vintage, the FD cage maybe is supposed to have the back side turned in by about a mm.
Find another old timer to be sure though. We didn't get much Campy in the shops I worked in back then and I didn't get to work on it very often.
