I would appreciate hearing from original poster after he/she obtain 3 quotes from 3 reputable heating contractors and state each price/quote.
Then a good debate could arise if this approach was good and cost effective.
My original post asked specific questions about their situation so that I could compare it to what I am doing, as it is a similar project and I could offer real pricing comparisons.

You did make a comment about the new LP boilers which was mentioned by my installer last week. Parts availability on these new high tech boilers is not plentiful, often times the parts need to come from the mfg as the supply houses do not carry them. We are thinking of actually leaving our oil system in as a backup, and tying the two together. It seems rather foolish to rip out a perfectly good functioning system and have to pay to do so. This would give us good redundancy and cover us if/when an issue arises.
