Only the first 300-some Ford Country Squire Station Wagons had a 427...they were the competition model and had a single 4bbl. carb.

Most of the rest of the Ford Country Squire Station Wagons had 428's with 2x4's on them.

In general, though, in the Wagon Queen Family Truckster bodystyle Station Wagons, there is only one true correct family of engines, the FE.

In the Ford Country Squire Station Wagon Sport Compact model (they eliminated the 9th row seats and put it on leaf springs)...this is commonly referred to as the Slab Side Ford Country Squire Station Wagon.... a small block is acceptable, be it a 289 Hi-Po or a 351W, although for the elitist groups, the 351C was always a more desirable motor in the Ford Country Squire Station Wagon Sport Compact.

Hope this clears some things up.
