It may have had something to do with the mixing of an ISO spindle with the Daytona cranks .... which I guess might be JIS, but it worked.

The nice thing about Phil BBs is that you can tweak the chainline a bit by design. There's a few mm's of wiggle room so you can set it more or less to the drive side or NDS. I don't think a spacer would be needed - there's no lockring or fixed cup ring to space out.
