Where do you live? If you are near enough I would do it for you. You can run al. wire through a reg mig gun but it sucks. You need 100% argon gas to do it and it works better with harder wire like 5356. As said either a push/pull gun or spool gun works best because the wire is so soft it is hard to get it to feed. You can use stick too, but again it's tuff, especially on thin stuff. You are better off to find someone who has the right equipment and get it done right. The proper equipment is faily expensive partially because it takes more power for aluminum because the heat spreads and disapates so fast. On my miller with the spoolgun I almost never use high range for steel but almost never use low range for aluminum.
