The big difference on the manifolds were the holes to thread the air pipe into at each exhaust port. Often you will find these holes simply plugged.
Again as I stated above A/C is not a factor with this P/N manifold used in this application.
As far as the whole 396/400/402 things goes its mostly marketing. The year breakouts above are correct. The SPID may list a 402 actual as a 396 or 400 so it is always a good idea to verify the engine suffix code if there is any question.

Ha...........I thought A.I.R. was A/C..........I see the difference. The RH (A.I.R.) has a ridge that runs along the side, and a small screw plugged in. The LH is smooth. Don't tell anyone my manifolds don't match. I used to know that and forgot all about it. I don't believe this truck had A.I.R.
