01-03 protgs and protege 5 01+ Mazda 626 ( requires parts from your current motor) or other 626 can be used the 626 I think will need the crank position sensor and crank swapped. If you get the motor from a 2002 protege make sure to pull the intake manifold and lock tight the VTCS flaps

There's a 2001 Protege sitting at the Salt Lake City Pick'n'Pull lot, don't know how much has been taken from the engine or whether it's damaged but might be worth giving them a call.
