I had the same situation on the bike I just built up - I bought a Shimano cartridge BB to replace the worn out old 3 piece cup & cone set up, but found that with the cartridge screwed in it's not possible to snug down the left hand cup because of the undersize width. I used the lockring from the old adjustable cup as a spacer on the right hand side - worked a treat.
