I did put a nice amount of grease (actually, anti-seize) between the cups and the body, but wrenching on the drive side was still making the non-drive side spin. Strangely, though, tightening the NDS didn't spin the DS as easily, so I guess this is the way forward.

For the record, the BB is Italian, and the factory thread lock is long since worn away.



Maybe I will try to slather on a bit more anti-seize. I know it's only a $10 tool, but buying a second one just for this seems a bit ridiculous.



That is exactly the tool that I have, but see above. Maybe I just need to find a local friend with Campagnolo bits.
What year is this NOS BB? It didn't have a fixed cup?
