The procedure I used was:

Practice on the old pump. Get the pulley you need. I used a Ford pulley that fit exactly. Measure the difference in dish between the new and old pulley. Press the shaft collar on the water pump toward the engine in a hydraulic press. Install pump and pulley, see if it lines up. Cut off excess shaft.

Repeat on brand new pump from Napa.
