It's BTDC that you set your timing. Car can't run if you put it ATDC. Yes it is clockwise (by turing it clockwise your advancing your timing BTDC).

The # marks on you balancer are BTDC, 0 would be TDC. Stock is 10* BTDC with a light, set it to 14* BTDC with a light. Using a light is the only way to set a degree of timming accuratly on you mustangs.

You can also remove the air box silincer and us a K&N filter. That will be just as good as a cone

plus, the K&N FIPK sucks in hot air, I'd just use the K&N panel filter.
