Any auto parts store and yes, they are very vehicle specific.

thanks for your help...I was under the impression that I could use any voltage regulator....this is going to be used in a competition vehicle...it will be an external voltage regulator

First things first. You are talking about an external voltage regulator for an alternator, correct? Also, you do have an alternator that requires an external alternator, correct?

If both of these are correct then you should be able to give the make and model of your car to any NAPA or similar store and get a replacement.

If neither of these is correct or you want something like an adjustable regulator, then you need to get a hold of an alternator specialist shop.
