Interesting finding. What would concern me is I had always believed traveling down the highway at speed is typically best case scenario as far as air flow is. At speed the condenser fan does not typically run if a pressure switch is installed and radiator fans are not running/fan clutch disengaged. A fan shroud is used to focus air flow though the rad from the fans. That said- a shroud will not improve air flow through rad at highway speeds in a properly operating cooling system.
