No, the shroud fits over the back of the radiator and, in conjunction with one or two PULLER fans, sucks air past the radiator and into the engine compartment.

It sounds like you have two pusher fans mounted in front of the radiator. If so, they are much less efficient than two puller fans installed behind the radiator along with a shroud.

Could very well solve your problem.
