Quick Question: Eddie Merckx Bottom Bracket Thread?

I just picked up a '92 (not sure if that qualifies as vintage) Eddie Merckx Century frameset. I am looking to outfit this bike a campy group I have kicking around. I was wondering if anyone knew what threading the bottom bracket shell is. I am not sure where Merckx were made at this time and if the thread is italian, english or french. Thanks.
