You can substitute aluminum wires with the proper connectors for the copper 
wires.  Just be sure to use the larger gauge over what copper gauge you 
would use.  There are electrical wiring books at the Home Center stores that 
have tables of what size aluminum is equal to no. 6 copper for example.

Use of the anti-oxidation grease and aluminum/ copper rated connectors is 
perfectly safe and compatible wiring substitution for high priced copper.
