The bottom bracket cup are included in that groupset, they are the empty cups just above the derailleurs. The bearings on those Campy cranks are on the crank spindles themselves. Assuming the cups are English threaded you are good to go.

Once again, do you now have the frame and fork? Assuming the frame is original, the rear dropout spacing is 126 mm and that group will require a 130 mm rear wheel. You will either have to force the wheel into place each time, which is not that difficult, or have the frame "cold set" (read bent) to 130 mm.
