An Italian BB is 36x24 on both L/H and R/H side (with a 70mm Shell). British Thread is 1.37x24tpi. (68 or 73mm Shell)
I would suggest trying a looseball Raleigh 1" 3/8th x 26TPI BB and seeing how you get on. (these were 70mm Shell width)

http://s842.photobucket.com/albums/zz344/hel1um/?action=view¤t=SunBB.jpgto face it down, would you take 1mm off both sides rather than 2mm off one?

Ive got a similar situation-Raleigh 1970s frame,cottered cranks,one cup still in.Not a budge out of it.
Would the drive side cup be loosened anti or clockwise?
Seem to have myself a 70.5/71mm BB with One of the cottered cups is stuck in (locknut side)& I'd like to add a Rudge-Whitworth 48t cottered crank I've tried a standard English 68mm - doesn't tighten up fully, and the axle is left loose. the frame is an old 60's/7o-'s Sun Worksop
Any Ideas?? could it be an italian BB?
Cheers
