i think i just about have my dad talked into making a mold for u-joints, but i am wondering if we should cast 300m or aermet..and what to make the caps from.. think a plain old spicer cap would do?? it would make the u-joints about half the price..

Wouldn't aermet be a bit too brittle for the application? You do want a strong/hard cast metal, but not much, she would snap lickity split
