Is it possible to fit a Shimano square taper crank arm to a campag bb?

I can't remember which way round isn't meant to work, tho I think I have seen both work!

I think this way is OK. Someone may correct me

It will go. Either way. Tapers don't match but WTF. Dog it up tight and keep an eye on it. After a bit the steel BB shaft will make its own taper in an alloy crank.

It goes but it's not great. JIS and the other one.

Campag is Iso shimano jis i have been trained not to mix the two as your likely to shagg the crank arms.
