Trouble with doing that is that the nyloc on the inlet nuts melts when fitted to the exhaust.
On the plus side, if you put nylocs on the exhaust studs, you can only thread them om on the one way

I'm gonna put 'K' nuts on in that case with a bit of lockwire, drill them for split pins and belt the ends over once fitted , that should do it

Wings first, it will lock them up good.
