You put yourself in a bind by ordering the BB first. It's best to buy BB and crankset at the same time to insure compatibility. If you are lucky enough to locate a crankset compatible with your new BB that's great, but I'd suggest checking on the chainline you need to match the rear chainline and then order a crankset/BB to that spec.
