I just dont understand how a 400 is small and a 396 is big, is it the stroke, and stuff like that longer on the 396.

TrueSlide is an unknown quantity at this point

There is a guy on NICO that swapped a LS1 in a s14(95-98) Nissan 240.

The only differences that I'm aware of are the heads and "strength" of the motor. Big block heads flow alot more, have bigger valves and etc. They're generally for more torque related duties. Small blocks like to rev a bit more (stock) and are more HP related.
That's just my understanding, by no means quote me on that.
