400M engine uses the same trans bellhousing bolt pattern as the 385 Lima series (429/460 ci engines), so you're o.k. on that issue.

You're dealing with some rather foggy information regarding the cylinder heads. There are three 351 Ford engines. The Windsor, the Cleveland, and the "M." The Cleveland and M heads are the same...excluding specific design accomodations such as adjustable rockers, small and large ports and chambers. Your 400 is nothing more than a stroked 351M.

You didn't specify what model "wagon" you have but all you have to know is: "Did Ford offer a 429/460 option for that year chassis?" My guess is yes since you now have a 400. If so, just go to your local auto parts store and get the motor mounts for that engine application. But, and this is a big BUT since I'm not a subject matter expert here, it's my understanding that the Lima and M series used the same block, insulator, and frame mounts as the Lima engines. I caution you to verify this, which shouldn't be too hard to do.
This thread, so far...
