Question Confused

Looking through different websight for different parts for my 79, and I'm seeing some say the 400m is a small block, and some calling it a big block.
I really thought it was a small block.....

Actually, is is neither... It uses the same bell as a 460, but Ford uses so many different bells, they just group by engine family, rather than big or small... That is more of a Chevy term.
