You can burn it in combustion engine directly instead of using expensive fuel cells.
I was hoping to see evidence that supported you assertion that:
"using aluminium to make H2 that is to 'assist' a gas' engine will save money over running on straight gasoline."

Even if there are arguments that this kind of system can reduce our overall expenses on petrol (+ Al powder costs), I don't see why it will be cheaper than some already accepted solutions - solutions that [Also] use cheap fossil-fuels and their derivatives [eg. propane or methanol].
... did you find anything to support any of this?
