first off you need a timing light.

you hook it up to the #1 spark plug wire and make sure you can read your timing marks on the balancer then you turn the distributor to what ever the desired time is.

do you know which plug on the firewall you have to unplug and where its located? where would be a good place to set it with a 347 stroker?

you should be able to set it off the distributor. and it all depends on the cam but about 15 degrees base is usualy a good place to start.
