As suggested above, we need to see a good drive side photo of your transmission to gauge what is feasible.

For example, I have found through experimentation that the Campag. Record on my Bianchi will not accommodate more than 26T. The good news is that stock gearing was 52-42 / 13-15-17-19-21-23, and going to a 42/26 bottom gear made a huge difference for me. Deferring to age, I now run a 38/26 low gear.
