Default alternator/voltage reg

I have a prestolite 12v 70amp ALX8403 alternator ,looking for a voltage regulator that is compatable. The Zeftronics chart only shows make/model of aircraft not alternator types.
Thanks, Tom
Napa ,Pep Boys is fine

1975 Ford LTD regulator works fine with the 35a "Vans" alternator and would probably be good for yours as well.

When I was 9, my parents had a Ford with a license number PKP614....... I sure could put that memory spot to better use now.......
