The pulley will be flush with the pump shaft.

You need to run a bottoming tap through there.

Ah alright, I'll have to pick up a tap and die set then. Thanks

No offense to deathtrap but I won't clean out a hole with a tap because it is designed to remove material by cutting. Instead I make a thread chaser by using an old bolt and cutting a groove across the threads (up and down).
