Looking for btu's of boiler.?

Built in the 50's, nameplate is wore out, I do have install manual MN. ou-2650. It apprears to have been manufactered by US Radiator Corporation. Any help is appreciated.

Answer:

Rule of thumb. Count the burners, each burner equals 20,000 BTU's. But don't tell anyone that's an old trade secret.
u either have to clock the gas meter or measure the main burner orifice's along with the gas pressure,,this is something that a tech would normally do,,if u are looking to replace the boiler u would have to do a heat loss on the house and that would tell u what size boiler u would need
