Lift pump replacement instructions?

I'm replacing my lift pump today and would like to find some instructions if they are out there. Might save me some time.

I moved mine to the frame rail just in front of the fuel tank when I replaced the original.
To install at the stock location, I've read it's easier if you loosen the fuel filter housing and set it out of the way for good access to the lift pump. It's pretty straight forward, just remember there's 2 sealing washers for each banjo fitting...1 to each side. I tighten the banjo bolts finger tight then 1/2 turn tighter with a wrench.

Yep, I moved the intake manifold and fuel filter to get to it. I would like to move it to the frame but plan to get a FASS later on so will do it then. It was definitely bad so now I'm worrying if my VP44 was damaged and how long it is going to last.

Nope, I've got 460, 463, and 1693. Think my fuel level sensor is going too. I've had a couple times where the fuel guage dropped to empty for a while and then came back up.
