RE: Amides
If you must blend PP and nylon you will need a compatibilizer. Maleated PP may work as a compatibilizer for PP and nylon.

"Orgalloy" (tm) made by Elf Atochem (or whoever owns them now)
is a PP/PA6 alloy ( I think they make a PA66/PP version) - 9% lighter than nylon, not as water absorbent though, chemical resistance about as PP.
Good mechanical properties
No idea about dyeing though.........
