Water Pump, Do it myself or pay someone?

thanks for those torque specs, I went with about 95 ft #'son the waterpump, no leaks should be good to go... BTW used almost exactly one gallon of Toyota Pink premix antifreeze just draining it out the bottom of radiator. The stuff looked perfectly clean and clear pink even after 115K but replaced it anyway...
