Is this pump better than the pump that had a plate in the bottom?
The pump you are describing sounds like a high volume pump. You don't need that one.

As Tubman mentioned, an 8BA-style pump will be fine. You'll just need to make you have the right pick up so it sits correctly near the bottom of your pan.
