Gas Burner with Hi-Lo

Looking for a good gas burner for a Smith Model 19 5 section, which will need a high rate of around 700,000 BTU/hr. The Carlin burners don't mention hi-lo.
Parts availability in Greater Boston is important. I heard the Powerflame burners are over priced.
Any suggestions.

PowerFlame JA series
is what I'd use. When supplied with the right actuator for the gas valve and damper, it will run lo-hi-lo with no problem.
If this is a steam boiler, you don't want to turn down more than 30% or so. The stack temp should be well above 350 degrees or so even at low fire, to avoid condensation in the chimney.
Check with Smith, you might be able to get this burner straight from them, already set up for that boiler.All Steamed Up, Inc.
