Can i connect the pedalSHIELD GND to a Metal Enclousure?
When i put pedalSHIELD into the enclousure, all the signal is drain out by the aluminum of the box.

In theory there is no problem using a metal enclosure and connecting the GND to the chassis. You have to take care of the metal box making short circuits between pins... what do you mean with

When I put the Pedalshield in the metal case, the sound fades away. That's what I meant.

There is no problem connecting pedalSHIELD ground to the metal chassis (enclosure), but if you are experiencing a signal drain when you do it is because there are some unwanted short-circuit or guitar signal grounding.
The most usual scenario is that the power jack, the guitar in/out jacks, the pins under the PCB are also connected to the chassis, creating an unwanted connection and draining the signal.
