We use nylocks on almost everything at my work (food manufacturing) and while they may take the temperature of an engine, I have found that with time the oil and temperature will degrade the nylon locking material. I would never rely on nylocks in your application. As a side note the locking ability of nylocks is severely degraded after they have been removed once. Whatever the original locking method was is probably what you should stay with. If you feel that you need to augment that with something, use locktite.
