Just wanted to update this thread after more investigation, trial and tribulation.
In the picture above, what I have listed as a "regulator" is indeed an older style BIRD. It would manage the connection between the solenoid on the left (chassis batts) and the solenoid on the right (coach batts). The solenoid on the left has aged and the contacts inside were arc'd and damaged beyond repair so I purchased the Sure Power 1315-200 as a replacement. As it turns out I was able to replace both the left solenoid and the original BIRD with the new Sure Power unit. The new unit has provisions for the existing Emergency Start (boost) wire and indicator light up on the dash, which all work just fine!
The Sure Power 1315-200 Bi-directional relay is a BIRD but with it's own solenoid to use in place of an existing one. Worked out for me and I was able to clean up a LOT of wiring in the compartment. Great alternative for those of us with older coaches - especially those of us who use the same regular automotive type flooded batteries for both Chassis and Coach.
