Hey Scott...
I would consider a 5 KVa mini pig with a 1256D variac set up for 140VAC
out.... or if you can find a step up transformer that can supply 130
-145 VAC that can handle 3-5 KW...

Don't need a step up transformer for the full power. Use the boost/buck
style connection with a low voltage (20V) transformer. Primary across
the line, secondary in series with the line.
2.4kW @ 120V is about 20Amps.. so all you need is a 20V 20A transformer,
which is about 400VA. They're a standard electrical supply house thing,
or there's lots of 24VAC out 120V in transformers around for
applications like sprinkler controls, landscape lighting, low voltage
lightning, etc.
