Ford 400m to 460 starter interchange?

I have swapped in a 460 in place of the 400 modified in my 78 Bronco. The swap is nearly complete but I need to lmow if the starter from the 400 will work with the 460. Please do not answer if you are not positive. I do not want to tear up the flexplate


The part numbers for 400M and 460 starters are the same at Powermaster's website:

See PN 9182

I'd say this is good evidence they'll swap right
