hint on doing this:
make sure the access-lists are identical in syntax i.e numerical ip addresses/subnets on each peer, instead of a network object on one peer and numerical ip on another. This can cause lots of tunnel failures
make sure your transform sets match, ie. 3DES-168
also, for starters, use 3DES-168 unless you are sure you have license for AES-256
this will also cause tunnel failures (this will save you some time)

learn2earn has the basic config, which is the same I posted for you in the word doc. (for pix 6.X) I would still read the doc since you have existing production config so you understand what your are doing instead of just copy and paste. This is a good time to get your feet wet.
knowledge is power
at a command prompt:
pix#sh ver
this will give license info
you should see something like this: VPN-3DES-AES enabled if you have AES encryption license
from your config:
esp-3des esp-md5-hmac this transform set is already being used. Again, if you require AES the above command should show if it is enabled in your license
: . ) cheers
This is a good time to get your feet wet and understand what is going on.
I have been in your shoes plenty of times...
In you config " isakmp policy 10 " is already being used so you would need to create a new one.
isakmp policy 12 authentication pre-share
isakmp policy 12 encryption aes-256
isakmp policy 12 hash sha
isakmp policy 12 group 5
isakmp policy 12 lifetime 14400
crypto IPSec transform-set myVPNset esp-aes-256 esp-sha-hmac

I am enclosing two articles from cisco. One is for pix 7.x or later, the other 6.X
just look at the config statements and substitue your data. If you can't bring up the tunnel, please post config and enable debug crypto isakmp 127 and debug crypto ipsec 127 and I will help you.
It's not that I'm lazy to type this, but this article will explain each step. You will understand what you are doing instead of just typing in configs
