Hey Shane

IS that a good case to use , what would you do with a messed up aluminum case when you are done with it.You cant burn em like the mag cases, i`ve heard that there is a case # as41 is that a good case to use or is the alluminum case the best. Hey have you talked to Tim up in Kamloops? Sounds like Skyreach isn`t doing too good.

AL cases can be welded - Mags nope.
AS41 cases are the norm for building performance engines but with all the advancements lately with the AL cases they might become the standard. Origanally AL cases had problems with poor casting (sand I believe) or something along those lines but from what I've seen of the newer versions that has been worked out. Matt has one from airspeed it looks real nice.

thanks for the info guys. it looks like i might go with the AL case. is there different brands of AL cases? Hey Matt have you had any problems with bolt holes lining up or any of the assembly?

Haha, nope. But then again it is still sitting on a shelf, unassembled.
