It looks like it should work. I don't know if it will clear the grip on the body though.

No - the grip prevents the camera from seating on the winder. However, you would only need to shave off a few millimetres off the grip to allow the FX-103 to mate with the W-7; however, the FX-103 Winder is perfectly adequate for the job. I'm not sure that the camera would survive if used with the W-7 on Continuous mode as the frame rate is slightly higher than the 103's winder - it might put too much of a strain on the shutter assembly.
Don't forget though that the W-7 works brilliantly with the Contax 139, even though two of its pins are redundant.
