Default 1970 Shovlehead Alternator Conversion Kit Regulator

Just Bought a 1970 shovlehead that is not charging. I must add that it had a alternator conversion kit installed, there lies the problem I cant find a replacement regulator. I have checked the alternator and it is putting out about 26 volts when I rev the motor. I also had a tech check the regulator and they tell me it is bad but there is no part number listed on the part. Can anybody point me in the right direction..?

Tkx A bunch

Part number 53-306 blk
53-547 chrome & 53-222 Accell chrome

But if I were you at this point I'd consider upgrading to the newer 32 amp system , you can get the whole kit on Ebay for $130 but use your old rotor not the one in the kit your's is much better . I do this with all the shovels I get in any more it's just too hard getting the older stators & regulators for them anymore .
