Will this engine header below fit in a regular non-hatchback protege.

I think it was designed for a Protege 5.

The fronts of the Proteges are all the same. It doesn't matter what model it's for, so long as its a 2 litre engine. It should fit. :)
 
Just make sure the flange doesn't hit the oil pan. I picked up a header that we had to modify because of that problem. Another word to the wise, hook up the egr pipe before you get all the studs back on the manifold.
 
Thank you all so much with the fast replies!

Also thank you 03zoomzoom, I will keep that in mind.
 
Don't forget to get the sparkplug non-foulers for the downstream O2 sensor, or you'll throw a check engine light.
