...yeah, actually you can...just depends on the hot tank cleaning solution the shop is using...there are aluminum safe cleaners out there, but not many shops use em...which I don't see why, saying as most modern engine parts are being cast in aluminum 
Here's an example: http://www.lyndist.com/aluminum_safe_ho ... leaner.htm
