It will be ISO. Do you have British or Italian threading on your frame? These take a 112mm bb for British and a 115mm for Italian. Chorus are 111mm.

I've got British, hence I should go for 112mm. Thank you, Poetic.

I've found Phil wood's 115 mm ISO and Campy's centaur 115,5 mm ISO to be closest to that specification. Thing is the latter is for triple-drive, hence I assume assymetrical and Phil wood's costs a fortune.
Any advice?
I've also found out that mixing ISO and JIS is not that big deal. -

Just to confuse matters, some say Campagnolo didn't adopt ISO till 93 and that JIS is a better match. With 144 bcd and a big small chainring there would also have been an offset on the drive side.

Oh my. Hence, considering the ISO/JIS interchangeability, sheldon brown mentions difference of 4,5mm of the sit on the spindle. Other places mention around 1cm. So maybe, would 113 JIS okay? In fact precisely that is mentioned inthis article on SKF BBs.

ya, thanks for the advice guys
Hello,
I'm trying to find what is the right BB, i.e., spindle length, ISO/JIS, asymmetrical or symmetrical, for use with campy's 87's super records (those non-fluted with laser-printed logos). I've had the original BB, but during one touring trip needed a quick replacement and is now nowhere to be found.
Only looking for sealed ones.
Will the campy Chorus do the job?
thank you
