Transmission Issues

Well, the 4T45E in my car is a hard shifting, crazy good tranny.... except one thing..

well, Saturday, we had some massive storm here, and it dumped like, 5" of rain on us, and, i was driving, at night...... and there was this "lake" in the road, i never saw,
i imagine that it was 7" or more deep, and i hit it at about 30..... well, needless to say, it splashed everything, the water got everywhere, all over the engine compartment, shot out the sides of the hood, and got everywhere..... the belt started slipping, and the car lost all electrical power... i also smelled like, some sort of "electrical" smell


well, i got it running, everything seemed normal, but, when i hold a steady speed, say 35... the idle will "surge" or say, go from 1350 to 1500 back to 1350 and so on, it will do this surge, only when i hold a speed, or am slightly accelerating.

it's annoying, it only does it from 30 to 60, and only in final drive, if i am climbing a hill, and the RPM's are at 1800 or so, it wont do it... it only will do it on a level slope, holding that speed.....

help?
