    WOW some good stuff in this thread guys thanks for the good read. BTW i put my cast in with my aluminum and never have a problem. Usually the cast I come across is a greyish color, non magnetic and very light so I assume that it is mostly alum.

    BC i guess each yard is different and yes on visits to Long Island I could see those yards are less finicky - but for what it is worth by me they want the Aluminum as AL or cast AL (like barbeque's) a lot of times I'll have a nice 60 lbs of AL and they pull out a few pieces and call it di cast & they will not take it. What ever the composition is I think the melting point is lower when one considers how important AL is in so many applications (precision) the weeding out of the Hodge podge no ferris has to start some place
