I'm not sure how successful you'll be using the stock standard OAG with a Newt Ian. I would be surprised if you can achieve focus without moving the mirror forward or finding a really really really low profile focuser.

You might want to consider the low profile Starlight Xpress OAG. it has a significantly thinner profile than either of the two others.

Getting them to attach to the newt could be a challenge as well seeing as OAG generally come with an SC thread and you'll need an SC tread to 2" bayonette adapter (often called an SC Adapter)
