No they arent too hard. Just those two bolts you see. Just make sure to clean the gasket surface good so you dont have a leak. You might have to bump the engine over to get the encentric to line up right to bolt the new fuel pump in.

I usually throw a thin film of grease on the wear surface of the lever arm and a drop of oil on the pivot etc before installation. Just use a little grease on the gasket, no silicone.

and make sure the engine is on TDC so the arm won't hit the fuel pump ecentric and make it easy to install.
