Hmm i'm not too sure, so i'll try and keep it simple....
I have a 2006 Chorus Crankset
I have a 2006 Chorus English bottom bracket
How do i put the two together. Crank Bolts (if so, are they english or italian specific?) or something else? Should crank bolts have meant to come with the cranks or BB? Are they even CALLED crank bolts!?
Thanks...

I'm assuming you have the bottom bracket already installed? If so, simply slide the crank onto the spindle, then insert the crank bolts and tighten them down to the recomended touque settings. {your crank have already have the bolts integrated into the crank}. The spindle has a taper, so it will require some tighteneing to get the crank to fully seat on the spindle, much sure it is all the way snugged up or it will loosen. Your best bet may be to get onto Prk tool's website, which can walk you thru about anything. I beleive it is www.parktools.com. Good luck!

crank bolts should have come with the crank. they would not be integrated. they fit Eng or Ita bottom brackets. if you don't have them, you can get some cheap ones from a bike store (or ask them to order Campy bolts).

sounds like i'd have someone qualified double-check your work. crank bolts arent really something you dont wanna be 100% sure about. that parktools link above has plenty of helpful info too.

Please, though, at least TRY to make sure that one crank is 180° from the other......................
BTW, you DO have a torque wrench, don't you???????????
