Ah-hah... I didn't know about Miche fitting campy and that it might give me a different spindle length option. I will look at those -- thanks.

I have done a little more searching and digging through old posts and unless the Miche idea works out it does sound like Phil Wood may be the safest (albeit relatively expensive) route. Still it probably beats buying a bottom bracket AND a set of cranks.
