C8 visual back

I've bought a replacement visual back with compression ring for my C8. I notice that it is longer than the original back. Does it play any role? (In principle it should, since the corrector plate is supposed to correct best at one particular position of the main mirror, but the effect is probably very small.) Does a longer visual back interfere with use of reducer/corrector?
