That way you'd only have a few small screw holes on the original.
But I'd just cut the back to fit, myself. The Ansco is a better camera than the B&J, so it would be an upgrade for the back., not destruction. In fact I've got an eye out for a certain B&J back for my 8x10 Ansco, and that's what's going to happen to it if I ever find one.
