    Check out the dirty price for the engines as is and then the clean price of Al. Then ask you yard if they will accept blobs of Al as clean. For me it would not be a serious consideration because of the time and expense just to get clean Al. Better to spend the time finding more profit or drinking coffee.



    If you want to start doing casing then why not melt them. 73, Mike
