Maybe something like a MEAN WELL RPT-60B open frame power supply would

Some other good sources of information:
PDP-11 Diagnostic Database - module "ZRQC"
http://www.retrocmp.com/tools/pdp-11-diagnostic-database/202-pdp-11-diagnostics-database
RQDX3 firmware source code. Not sure what version this is.
http://www.bitsavers.org/pdf/dec/qbus/rqdxx/rqdx3_src.zip
Are you referring to this board listed below?
M7165 Qbus SDI disk adapter
That's not SCSI. That's one board of a two board set, the other being the
M7164, that are an SDI controller for RA6x, RA7x, RA8x, RA9x drives.

This IMSAI 8K BASIC Version 1.4 manual says 32 chips in two IMSAI PROM
4 boards. That would be 32 256-byte 1702 EPROMs.

Oh yeah, that reminds me, I have a Sun 4/110. Never really thought
much about it being a VME system, such as a Motorola MVME system. I
can't say I use the Sun 4/110 at least occasionally. I don't remember
the last time I powered it on. I suppose I should see if it still
boots up sometime.

From what I can tell from a quick look at the datasheets, on the 68764 the
