'84 429 Big Block fuel pump replacement

I have an '84 F-800 16' flatbed dump with the 429 motor. The truck has been sitting for several months without starting but was running when I parked it. I put Sta-bil in the gas when I parked it. I tried starting it today and it would only run for a short while after I primed it. I pulled the fuel filter and cranked it but nothing came out. I'm ASSUMING its the fuel pump, so how hard is that to replace? I've looked online for info but can't find anything. Any help would be greatly appreciated, as well as links to any sites for my truck. Its parked on an incline pointing uphill, if that would make any difference. Thanks.

Assuming your 429 heavy truck engine is the same as a 460(I believe it is), here's some info. Look on the front driver's side for the pump. It's pretty easy if you can get to the bolts.
