Personally I would remove old insulation and go back with ridge vents and spray foam. Then have whoever changes out the AC also change out the ducts. This will be pricey but pay off in the long run.

If you use spray foam you don't need ridge vents.

Well you should learn more about what you're sometimes doing. You aren't supposed to vent the attic when using spray foam.

You can't do ridge vents if you're doing spray foam.
OP, it all depends on how much money you want to spend. Spray foam is legit but pretty expensive. I did a medical clinic in Denham that was foamed. I did an inspection in July and the temp in the attic was 81 degrees. Seriously cool stuff.
If you really want to replace insulation, I'd just do blown. It's what I got in my house and it's stupid easy to do.
