Removing/Installing Campag Veloce BB

Is there anything I should be aware of when removing and fitting a Campag Veloce BB? I have the correct type BB wrench but don't have a torque wrench so won't be able to get the torque right.
The thread on the BB shell is English.
From what I can see it looks a pretty straight forward enough job for the home mechanic, or am I being over confident and should I get my LBS to do it for me?

I wouldn't bother with a torque wrench myself, just make sure you grease the threads and get it tight enough. Torque wrenches are fine for clamping round carbon bits, but I think we have got a bit nannyish thinking we have to use them on everything.0

Yeah, I know what you mean re: torque settings. Thanks for your advice.0

There's a thread on here, in know how, but I can't remember what it's called, I'll get back to you.0

I've got more time now.
There's some good reference points here.

When I did it, I followed the spec sheets from www.campagnolo.com.
Pretty sraight forward actually, just as long as you have the right tools.0
