Don't forget that there is a difference in length between pre-CPSC and CPSC-approved spindles. The latter ones have a longer extension of the drive side. Using the wrong one will definitely affect shifting. Other list members can tell you what code numbers (stamped on the inside of the arm) indicate CPSC-approved crank arms, I just look at the offset between the spider and arm.
I believe that the CPSC spindles are the ones with the "Z" under the 68-SS-120 stamp.

OK, gang, it's my day to need things to complete projects!
This time it's the above-mentioned bottom bracket spindle -- Campy preferred -- which should be marked *68SS* [NOT *70SS] on its little spindle body.
Many thanks for any leads. (Larry Osborn, I'll get you yet for this little Raleigh project!)
