Ted, when you speak of density, are you referring to mass integrity or simply the weight mass? Would not the hopefully elimination of any degradation of the product be worth the possible change in cast materiel ? Also, there are many aluminum alloys with record of long use without any difficulty, and do have sufficient mass. It is apparent the integrity of the casting materiel is overall the problem, and nobody disputes that. Along with use of aluminum, what other metal is readily available and proven for superior castings? Opinions...… I do realize some may believe to be a mute point, because it still involves a matter of QC. But, why not, can not, manufactures explore this route in seeking a resolution?
