Easiest 727/904 rebuild thread...
Something a transmission guy would have would be a puller special for pulling a pump. So what it is is the pump is put in with smaller bolts and there's two of the bulk that have larger threads that you can use to pull on the pump to pull it out.
I did a little bit of a hillbilly deal here where I took a couple of the tail housing bolts which are the correct size and used one on a piece of chain with a piece of bar and used a wedge and you can see the way I pried on it. What I really did was just got some good tension on it and gently tapped on the pump itself which gave way to that tension. After that I gave it a few more taps from behind on top and it popped out..
Also pointing out on the back of the pump there there's usually a spacer washer of some sort and this is something that can be added to or subtracted from for the final end play but I've never messed with it I just put everything back the way it was and it's usually fine..
