Yup, on the small blocks, you can remove said bolt and install a longer one. I think on the big blocks, you don't have that option.
Sometimes when the engine is in certian cars, you can't quite access the bolt. You then have two options.
1. Grease. Use a big 'ole blob od chassis grease, and cover the end of the rod...shofe that rod up in the cavity. The grease will give a you little time to get everything together. Right before you stick the pump in there, poke your finger in and make sure the rod is in the up position.
2. Use a hack saw blade to hild the rod up as you slide the pump in. Bending the blade a bit helps quite a bit.
