Anthony there is one serious flaw in the idea of keeping the old girl in operation. That is the integrity of the firebox, and the possible leak of combustion gasses into the house. There is no high value reason to use the old furnace. A Trane, Or Lenox, Or other brand name high efficiency furnace will be in the 1500 to 2500 range of cost, and will be massively better at heating the home.
