The key to getting the pump out easily is to use a 1/4" drive ratchet. It will fit nicely behind the pulley. Some folks find it easier to remove the pump by taking the pump bracket off the engine first. If you can't get the hoses off with the pump in place, take them off after you unbolt the pump from the engine.

Thanks for the tips.
I'll call Mercruiser Monday morning to see if they have a complete kit for this. Their parts site shows only the individual parts.
I may consider aftermarket.
Has anyone here had any experience with going non oem for this?
