Interesting, I don't have that top view finder and use the wire frame finder when I shoot hand held with my Super Graphic, I find it works well with a 90mm or even a 203mm/210mm as well as my usual 135mm or 150mm, I compose on the GG screen and the rangefinders broken.

The viewfinder has parallax correction and it's more suitable for hand held use. Have you got a shoe on top right camera's corner?
As you can see, I just tapered the viewfinder with papertape in order to reduce size while I'm using a 6X9 Horseman rollfilm back. I know there are frames in various format (and lens lenght) for thet viewfinder but papertape is cheaper.
No there's never been a top shoe on mine, I have used the similar viewfinder on my Crown Graphic. However I've found the Wire frame finders to be accurate and they have parallax correction as well, the advantage is they are good regardless of focal length and also with front tilt or rise. I use mine with quite tight framing and find it easy and fast to use.
