Hi Guys
Just about to bolt up my gearbox to the block and wanted to check if it's okay to use a Nylock nut in the gearbox or if the nylon will deteriorate over time.
Welcome any advice before I put it all together!

Nyloc nuts are used on driveshaft yokes where they can cop lots of oil and I think the speedo drive gears in the box are in nylon too.

it's fine, I've had one holding my central oil pickup for many years

there's also the question of why you actually want to put a fictitious wizard's coin in your gearbox.... http://harrypotter.wikia.com/wiki/Knut
