The transmission cooler I recommend for your 2018 Silverado 1500 with 4.3L V6 is the Class IV Derale Series 8000 model # D13504. This large 11 x 12-inch plate-fin type cooler has plenty of surface area for transferring heat and it will give you the most efficient secondary cooling of your transmission fluid. It will cool better than the smaller Class III model # D13503 that you referenced.

This Derale cooler installs in front of your AC condenser using the included mounting kit. The linked video shows installation in a GM vehicle; your install will be essentially the same.
