You do know that ANY Series II 3800 will bolt up to your existing tranny, right? No reason to get a new one.

The radiator and engine seem to have a layer of rust in them, probably from when the car was labeled a flood vehicle (who knows) Is there a way to clean it out? its not damaged inside its just layered with whatever rusty crap was in the radiator...
