[QUOTE="wawazat, post: 3911412, member: 35603"] If youre concerned at all, just put a super thin film of lube/grease between the two. Ive not had any issues with galvanic corrosion as long as I kept plenty of lube where to two dissimilar metals meet. For automotive stuff, it isnt unheard of for mfg to use aluminum bolts throughout the AC plumbing system, even where they thread into the steel chassis. Ive had VERY few issues where galvanic corrosion would seize a fastener in this situation because even the smallest amount of paint in the threads keeps them pretty protected in normal environments and some of these fasteners had been in place for at least 15-20 years.
