This is from an engine builder and his thoughts on this matter...

It is impossible to know the exact cold adjustment UNLESS you have set them hot and then check them cold for future reference. As an aside, the reason hot is used is that different parts expand differently which would require a chart for each valve when cold. Not worth it in my opinion. Always check hot...
