What truck?

I thought M referred to modified, because the Cleveland block was modified with a larger crank/rod journals (to 429/460 size, I think), and the deck height was increased. It also has the same bellhousing, distributor and timing chain as the 385 series. Add crappy large chamber heads and call it "M". The engine is testimony that "modified" isn't always improved, merely changed.

Who would give me the most trouble???? Probably my wife, unless she really liked the new f 100 girl. Then I might get jealous.....

But I would have the truck to park by the dog house!

There was some salvation for the 400's for a while. Someone in Arkansas was making a wider four V intake to fit the 351M and the 400's with the large ports so you could use the Cleveland 4V heads on them. I had a 78 Bronco with a 400 and it did not take a lot to liven it up.
