Default Fuel Pump Stuff

I recently ran my car out of gas. Stupid i know, i wasn't watching the guage. But anyway i noticed a stock replacement pump is in the 300-400 dollar range from autozone. Ive seen walbro pumps on ws6store for like 150-200 bucks. Would one of these work? Is there any modification needed to make one work? Car is a 1999 Trans Am thanks for the help...

Why do you want to replace the Pump?
Just because it ran out of gas dosen't mean there is anything wrong with it.
Have you put gas in it tried to start it?

just went out there and charged the battery and tryed to fire it up again, its been sittin for about a week. It started up and idled extremely ruff for about 3 or 4 seconds and died. It did this about 3 times then nothing at all. Since it is gettin some fuel, does it sound like it might be a clogged fuel filter or sump? LMK what you guys think!
