Not Ranked
I had a 400M in a 79 F-150. Was a good powerful engine for the truck, but I wouldn't run one in a car. You can build a better revving lighter motor in a small block, or a more powerful and probably cheaper motor in a big block. The C/M motors are kind of in the middle.
Also, the 400 motor does not have block coolant passages between the cylinders, so some people have cooling issues with them.
