Good thing you didn't get coolant inside the trans, lol.
Did you remove the (2) engine drain plugs to completely drain the engine block?
You could try removing your thermostat and run a hose to your water pump while the engine is running.

Watch who you take it to, i know a shop who just opens up the radiator and then runs hose water through it then replaces the coolent. It is not worth what they charge.

we cycle new coolant through the system and suck out all the old with a machine, takes no more than 30 minutes

Did you actually remove the two allen screw drain plugs (one on each side of the block)?

maybe those super radiator flush chemicals? kinda sucks to get the oil residue out from the cooling system

+1 We use a chemical(I forget the name of it) but it works way better than just a straight flush.

Do you really think pouring water in a block contaminated with trans fluid with get it out? I sure hope you know water and oil don't mix.

You can have a shop use a flush machine with an additive that will break down gunk and petroleum-based fluids.
