Ahh, but doesn't the 351M have the same bolt pattern as the 460? Not that the M is thought to be one of the most desirable engines, but he didn't specify which 351.
Actually, I was considering going the other way, 351M to 460, on my Dad's truck. It already gets 10 MPG towing, or 10 on the highway, or 10 if treat it nicely. And, everyone says you can get 10 coasting with a 460, so why not?

Yes, the 460 is a 335-Series engine and shares the same bell housing pattern as the 351M & 400 (as well as a few other things):
