Only the bellows of course differs whether you want to connect the 5x7" back to a 141 mm or 171 mm front format frame.
Function carriers have always be common to all F-line camera formats, from the small 6x9 cm to the 8x10" model. This was already the rule for Oschwald cameras.
If you wish to connect to a 171 mm front format frame, although 171 mm format frames are now discontinued, I'm quite sure that Arca Swiss can provide the proper 171 mm to 5x7" tapered bellows.
