i've got a "Matt's Monster" calcium reactor sitting in my garage that i could part with. was thinking about #5 on your list. where are you at in austin, maybe we could meet up and you could take a look at the reactor and see if you want a trade.

If you do get that reactor, I can probably help you plumb the eheim pump, although I don't know what kind of pump is on the reactor RSC has. I used pan world, little giant, and eheim pumps in that order of preference on my reactors. The eheims you can plumb by removing the hose barb and replacing it with a 3/8" close nipple, which I have one of, then use a PVC bushing on the close nipple.

I built those reactors to last forever, so it should be fine unless it's been really banged up. There's almost nothing on them that can't be fixed fairly easily; I'm currently using one that Felipe had in Fin-Addict for years and had been pretty badly knocked around. I replaced a few fittings and it works like new. I finally got my weld-on #40 today, so hopefully I'll have a little time next week to finish the new reactor and I'll post some photos.
