Perusing through the classifieds, I came across this:

"This is my 400(HC) chimaera. As far as ive been able to find out there was less than 10 of these made.Performance is on a par with the 4.5."

It's a '94 model. I'm curious to know if the HC models are, indeed, this rare.

(Apologies if I've misinterpreted the advert.)

It would have to be a very well sorted 400 to feel anywhere near a s quick as a 450. IMHO.
My old 400SE had a well sorted 400 engine (251 bhp) but feels hugely slower than my 450 Wedge & my current 500 Griff. yes
