You would want a non-AC manifold since you don’t have AC.... but if you have an AC compressor mounted on your block then you would need a AC manifold.....

The answer is:

IT DOESN'T MATTER.

If you don't have A/C, you can use either manifold, obviously. The A/C manifolds only change where the turbo/ewg's are located so it will clear the A/C compressor/condenser.
