And I can remember a few instances of you suggesting my comments or intentions were less than appropriate....
Doing it cold is just for sissys that are afraid of getting their fingers burned...once you do it a few times, it don't hurt no more!!!
OK happy.
Frankly I don't see why if your are sure that your valves have reached there maximum expansion, (ie hot), you wouldn't be able to set them the same way you set valves in a V-8,(ie hot and with no clearence). The difficulty would concern your super powers of determining exactly when the rocker adjustment screw just touches the valve stem tip. And maybe at that point one would even go so far as to back the screw off some minor amount. So how well do you see back deep inside with both hands and a wrench in there under the car or on top at elevated temps trying to get it right twelve times when you could just do it cold and actually measure the clearence without stickiing your head or a mirror down inside!!!
This is what you were looking for isn't it....
