Sorry but your totally wrong Chad,
I wasn't refering to your exact product, but extrusions are always weaker than castings.
Thats why we use alot of castings to produce our Aerospace and Medical Components. These could be Whittled out of billet alot easier.
The molecular structure of extrusions can be compared to a slice off of a log, you give it some stress from the side and it fails...
Cast material has multi-lateral matix, grain structure, Thats why Porsche used it then and does today.
But what do they know compred to you, nothing I guess.
Good Luck to the Gentleman who is inovative an adapts the Porsche Jugs, don't let someone beat you down, so the might line their wallet W/$$$
