Mechanical Fuel Pump Question

[blackmagik3]

I just purchased a new 383 and want to run a mechanical fuel pump instead of an electric fuel pump, which is what I have currently. To be honest, I'm not to familiar with the whole setup. I did some research and figured out how they work but that's about the extent of it. When I go to install it, there isn't a rod to activate the fuel pump arm so I'm stumped. Should the motor have come with one installed? I'd hate to break apart the new motor to install one, if that's what it takes.
