New oil pump while the pan is off?

I eventually plant to put a new gasket on the oil pad. Would it be a good idea to change the oil pump while I am in there? Would a higher flow one help the stock 402 any or is it better to no disturb it if it is working.

Is there a better, bigger, pan to put on, a new one would be lighter I am sure.

Edit: I guess I would need to take the oil pump off anyways if I were to re-do the rear main while in there

Freedom isn't safe, it requires you to take responsibility for your own life, your own safety, and your own success. It carries with it the possibility of failure and the understanding that you're working without out a safety net. If you give the state the responsibility for any of these you also give up the freedom that accompanies the responsibility.
