Yes, the clearance set cold should be whatever the cam spec is minus .015" with alloy block and heads.

That's how much the engine grows.

Mine is alloy heads on iron block. Cam spec is .022 clearance hot. Cold is .006 tighter or .016 cold.

I would check with the cam manufacturers tech line to get an exact number and go with that. Don't go with just what I say.

Mine is a CompCams solid lifter. The .006" in my case is Compcams number. That's their recommendation.
