If you'd rather design your own, there're plenty of schematics in this thread to draw inspiration from. But expecting me to give away my work in a vendor thread seems a tad much.

You're right. That should work. I get just shy of 2 mA through R6, so 160 V across R9, thereby, 170 V at the output.
I do recall fiddling with that a while back and settling on a lower voltage across R7.
It would be interesting to build it and see if it's a simulation issue or if the regulator just explodes on start-up. Wear eye protection.

You can also buy the latest revision of the 21st Century Maida Regulator here: https://neurochrome.com/products/21st-century-maida-regulator
That Regulator has been updated quite a few times since the original design. The first update (to Rev. 2.0) made significant improvements in the line rejection (i.e., ripple rejection of the Regulator). The subsequent updates were to further enhance the ruggedness of the Regulator.
