I have 3/8s line running to the cooler. I am not running through the radiator. I have had a "real" tranny cooler on it before, made by hayden. But the transmission got bad hot with it too.

The radiator is completely clean and free of debris, its less than a year old. I flushed the condenser and its clean on the outside as well, the fins are straight. It also puts off a lot of heat. Making it harder for my motor to cool off. What if moved the tranny cooler to the bed and put a couple of electric fans on it? It was always my understanding that C6s were hard to keep cool.
Don't know if this is significant, but when it was getting hot, it was roughly 75 degrees outside.

just an idea, something like one of these as a starting point. add a fan if need be.

idk if the abs crap matters or not as to how the m/c's function. if not then i'd say try it, but find out if its an issue or not first.

don't know about pedal feel, but it will move more fluid. do you have disk's on the rear? if so, you now need to move more fluid to get the same braking as you did with drums. least that's what i've always heard. upsize you m/c when going to rear disks. plus you may have had a single piston caliper m/c to begin with.

on my old 90 F250, i put a 90 superduty MC on it because the piston bore was a lot larger. it made a world of difference in the stopping power, and pedal effort needed to stop.
the 90 F-Superduty M/C has either a 1 5/8 or 1 3/4 bore compaired to the stock F250 m/c with a 1 3/8 bore i think it is
