I need to know the difference between billet alum. and 6061 alum.The reason is , I'm going to machine my own pistonrod for a briggs 5hp gokart racing engine from aluminum but need to know if the 6061 series alloy would be strong enough to take the stress and heat of this environment.There are after market rods advertised as billet alum.Thanks in advance fo any and all information
