Yes, I got the fuel pump in after all this time. Just like any other project on this car, changing the pump about 20% of the time involved, work generated by changing the pump 80%. I took the advice about getting eccentric 180 degrees off TDC and the pump almost fell in. I had to remove the bulkhead to loosen the top bolt, but most of the work was done from the bottom, on my back, upside down. Worst part was I could only get one hand up into that area. Pump works great.
I want to thank everyone for their advice.
