IMHO, trany standing up and lowering the OD down on top is the way to go.
The springs
shouldn't be an issue if you put the adapter plate on the OD unit first
which encapsulates the springs.
For a pretty good deomonstration of this go to the U Tube University motors
videos and look for
John Twists OD install clip. He also suggests to champher the pump cam to
help with a nice smooth
install, well sometimes.
Priceless.
