This depends on two things: the specific FW implementation of the devices, and the order they appear in the chain. Devices fully implementing the spec will run at their rated IO speed even in a mixed chain setup, but almost all devices will operate at rated IO speed if the FW400 devices are at the tail of the chain, furthest from the port. I've measured this and found it to be true.
