Unusual cartridge configuration

The DAMS IEEE interface

To me it looks like a VIC-20 cartridge case and the PCB looks like it obviously plugs into a 64, but if you chop it just right it would fit into a VIC-20?

Looking at some of the connections, especially the 5V, it does look like you could chop this board right at the edge of the 0.156" spaced tabs and you'd get the VIC-20 version. I suppose a different firmware would be required.
