Fuel Pump Replacement

Hey everyone! I've been inactive on these forums for a while, but just got a 1990 Allante (one of my dream cars over the past 15 years or so) with 90k miles on it for next to nothing. It came with a catch, though: the fuel pump is bad, and while it came with a replacement, the replacement was not installed. I've replaced fuel pumps before so it's not a huge deal, but my service manual won't be here for a while and I was hoping someone could shed some light on what needs to happen. I know the tank needs to come down. Is it as simple as removing the four strap bolts and lowering the tank with a jack? Does the filler neck need to come out separately? Do I run the risk of bending the lines if I lower too much? Are there any tricks to disconnecting and reconnecting the fuel lines themselves?

It's hard to find any information on these cars on the web (not surprisingly, given the production figures), so I'm hoping someone here can provide some insight. Thanks in advance!
