Simple Regulated Power Supply - help needed

Simple power supply regulated by zener diode intended as a backend to the Riden RD6006.  The Riden RD6006  accepts up to 70 volts DC

Currently I am struggling with configuring the transformer in the simulation to match the one I am planning to buy.

The spec of the transformer I plan to buy is:
Rating: 400VA 
Primary: 2 x 115 volts
Secondary: 2 x 24 volts
No load voltage: 2 x 25.8 volts
Frequency: 50-60hz

I plan to connect the primary windings in series and the secondary windings in series.

I think i should get a peak voltage (no load) of around (2 * 25.8) * √2 = 72.97 volts.  Is this correct?

I also think with a 8 ohm resistor I should see 8 Amps flowing at 48 volts. Do I have this correct?

How do I configure the transform in EveryCircuit to match the above
