BTW, the original riveted tag is on the top of the transmission housing on the front side by the bellows ring
being a 1992, you have either a 571A or a 572A which is a 5.7 paired to a DPA1 or DPA2 since you state DP's in post #1...
here is your volvo penta 271C setup (regardless if you are running the stock carb or EFI)
water comes in from the drive intake, up thru the H-frame swivel shaft to the leak-prone casting to the hose that goes to the transom shield. From there, the water goes thru the power steering cooler...

Welcome aboard
Does it crank and not fire, or not turn over?
Did you clean the battery cables and connections?

No, your current thermostat housing is a mix valve housing (mixes incoming water with the hot water to maintain block temp while keeping constant flow to the exhaust
if you want to run a HX, you need a new dedicated glycol side housing and a the exhaust feed is from the HX
140 degrees for carbureted and seawater cooled
160 degrees for carbureted and heat exchanged cooled or EFI and seawater cooled
180 degrees for EFI and heat exchanged cooled
make sure you have a good ground to the gauge sender
not sure how you got 400hp out of a 350 with a marine cam and...
