Actually I believe the M designation is only on the 351. I have a 79 Bronco with the 400.
Ah, the good old days!
Had a 1977 F-250 4 X 4 with the 400 in it. Wonderful truck!
Consistent performer.
For example, no matter how hard, or how easy you drove it, it got 11 miles to the gallon. :B (seriously! )
No matter how you babied it, the electronic control box in the engine compartment would fail without warning when warm, forcing you to try pouring cold water over it so it would start again. (which never seemed to work anyway :M )
And it always threw out the first quart of oil after a change, then remained steady for the next 3,000 miles until the next change.
Ah, my first truck. Such pleasant memories!
