Unhappy Need Help with water pump removal

Alright, this is stupid but I have run into a problem taking off my water pump. There is 8 bolts, i got seven off. The 8th one is hidden behind part of the power steering pump. I can't get to it anyway i've tried. I figured to move the power steering pump out of the way but that is what I am having trouble with. I took off two bolts and loosened one a lot, but the thing won't move. Is there more bolts or am I doing wrong or what. I have the Haynes manual but it isn't really helping me with this. I really want to get this done and over with so if anyone could I would appreciate it.

Yeah, stevem is right, there are only 4 bolts holding the waterpump on. Are you sure you're not taking off the accessory brackets or something? Once you take off the four bolts holding the water pump to the block, it will come off, no problem. You may want to get a rubber mallot or something to whack it with, as the pump sometimes gets a little stuck to the motor.
