Having driven omega with and without A/C, why would you want no A/C. Doesn't take much to get it working. The 2 major weak spots are the condenser and pipes under the battery tray,

I changed all sorts of bits & pieces on my Omega .... HP & LP valves .... pressure switches ... condenser & compressor ... and the bugger refused to hold onto its gas.  :-\
