Jensen #75's are the best bang for the buck imho, very good starting place & your tricking this one out very well. That bix burner will suit your needs for a bevy of future steam plants 😉🙂

The BIX was a good investment.   It runs much more "smooth" and "consistent" throughout the boiler run.  I don't have to keep refueling it and deal with stinky esbit tablets or ethyl alcohol soot.  Stays cleaner, runs better.

I can't wait to mess with a #55 in the coming weeks.  Dual-piston engine on a cast iron base will be really wicked.  Plus, a larger boiler, I assume.
