Yes, the Derale Temperature Gauge Kit for Transmission or Engine Oil, part # D139009, would work with your Derale Series 8000 Plate-Fin Transmission Cooler, part # D13504, on your 2003 Chevy Z71.
The # D13009 is designed to be used on transmission or engine oil coolers so it would work well for you. I attached an FAQ article on transmission coolers below for you to check out also.
You should note that in order to install this # D13009 you will either have to remove your oil pan and drill a 1/2 inch hole into the transmission oil pan and use the supplied jam nut, nylon washer and temp sender pan adapter to install the temperature sensor. Or if your radiator has a coolant port on your radiator, using the included thread sealed tape to install the temperature sensor in the port.
