The stock one will work just fine, unless you are having issues with it? I am running a 383 and the stock regulator works great for me as it is adjustable with an allen key/wrench. Just my 2 cents - save your money unless you really want one.

The stock regulator is not adjustable. If you get the SLP convertion for the stock base then it is. I would say you will be fine with the stocker for now, as long as you dont start running into supply issues.

Oh, my bad you're right. I forgot we did the SLP conversion when we installed the 383 9 years ago. It's been way too long to remember these things.
