Autocross doesn't usually have very high speeds, so a passive duct may not change much. Also you have to look at how the air is currently flowing through the engine bay. Adding fresh air behind the radiator can cool hot parts of the engine, but can also make it more difficult for the radiator fans to move air into the engine bay, because there are other sources pressurizing that area.
The type of duct you would want is a Naca Duct. Directing fresh air on the headers can pull a lot of heat out of the engine bay, and may result in cooler temperatures overall.
Really it sounds like you need to address the radiator and fan setup you've got. There are plenty of people with TT engines making more power than an LS and still able to keep it cool at track days.
