It not that bad as long as you take your time. Just make sure you get a pipe for leverage.

Oh trust me I know. This isnt the first time I have had the top end apart. I have had the motor in and out of the car 2 times since last year. I had to replace the oil pump last month and now this. Plus I had to do lifters/cam in my wifes Z28.

Well I believe the theory behind these specific pumps are they assist the driver less in order to reduce temps inside the pump and make your lines smooth (less steering input). I do not understand what you mean by understeer? Are you referring to the car pushing the front tires into a corner? If so this would have to do with your suspension setup and is irrelevant to the power steering pump.
