Campy Ultra Torque Crankset w/9spd chain?

Can I run a Campy Ultra Torque crankset with a 9spd chain? Are the
Ultra Troque units very narrow on their spacing between the rings?
Best,

Ring spacing and tooth width are the same. The difference is extra
material between rings to prevent the narrow 10-speed chain from
skating between the rings during a bad shift. Should work fine.

Sure, no issues despite "buy all our new stuff together" admonishments.

Like Andy said, in spite of certain website 'experts' that wish you to
buy everything 10s.
