Old style fuel pump?
Having what I think is a fuel delivery issue with my 1991, 30K miles. Changed the fuel filter, same problem, starts right up, runs a few seconds (longer if you wait longer between starting attempts) then stalls. Pulled the fuel pump after watching videos, and my pump has 2 separate pumps on the same assembly. manual testing shows one works, one does not. It is not the same pump I see on the videos. Replacement pump looks like the same pump (one pump only) in the videos. Is my old one now being replaced with this new version?

Napa shows this single pump for the LT5. My shop used the proper vin and this is the pump that was listed.

What do you think of the TI Walbro Ligenfelter dual pump?

Re: Old style fuel pump?
Replace both pumps while your in there. Your dealing with 30 year old parts. Don't bother with high performance pumps unless the car has been modified and has over 500hp. RockAuto.com and JerrysGaskets.com have a good selection. I've had good luck with the "Performance Electric" Brand Rock sells. Can't go wrong with Delphi. Ultimately they all come from China. Replace the plastic hose clamps on the assembly with stainless steels ones as well. If you don't have one, buy yourself a Factory Service Manual and read up on the cars systems and how they work. The fuel system (amongst other things) on an LT5 is unlike any other.
