Need to replace furnace in 75 tradewind

Today I gutted the galley in my 75 tradewind. I have already purchased a new stove and sink. I am now looking for a good replacement for the original suburban furnace. What is the BEST replacement for this unit? I don't want to even mess with the 35 year old unit. I just want the smallest unit to fit the space and ducting that exists in the trailer. Please provide make/model if you have done this swap.

thank you
Patrick

You are wise not to mess with the old one. I was not and I did and wasted a lot of time and money. There are some alternatives out there but if you want to do it easy as possible and use the existing ductwork put in a new NT30, and yes I did end up doing it. There were some threads on the subject a week or so ago and there are past threads too.
