The Ford Barn

I live in NE Ohio, and I want to add heat to my 22x22 garage. I am considering one of those hanging units, but I don't know what size (BTU) would work best. I have a 50,000 BTU in another garage that works and heats fine (3 car), but it is a regular furnace with ductwork and the building is completely finished and insulated.
The 22x22 is only insulated on the roof line (R-19 open rafters), and I was hoping for something simple that wouldn't require all the messing around that installing another furnace would involve.
Anyone have experience on what works for them under similar circumstances?
Thanks!
