Engine block rust?

Hey!

 

What are the best options when "recommissioning" and installling an engine that has been in storage for years? This is a Dodge Colt (Mitsu) engine with 10K on it. The engine is perfect except there is rust, (not horrible), in the coolant passages of the block. I don't want to tear the engine down.

 

Can I clean as much as possible? How? Then install a coolant filter like this?

Any thoughts would be appreciated!

 

Thanks, Todd
