351M vs 400 block differences?

Ok, this may be a dumb question:

I am trying to restore my truck back to stock (as close as I can).

It originally came w/ a 400 engine.

Is there any difference between the blocks of the 2? I see alot of 351M blocks/engines for sale, but not many 400s.

Thanks all. Eric

The only difference in 351m, 400 are pistons and crankshaft. Blocks are the same.
