1933 Standard eight valve settings, cold?

Pulled the intake and exhaust manifolds to replace gaskets. While manifolds off, looks like a good time to set valves. However the manual says to set valves hot. Looks like difficult while hot.

What clearance should I use to set valves cold?

Or should I just set the valves hot?

Just bought the car. Overheats very quickly. I 5-6 minutes. Boils over. IR thermometer shows hotter in rear of engine. Engine runs great, starts, smooth. The middle eight engine. Not Super Eight.

I was suggested to pull front clip and remove large brass squarish tube from engine as may be clogged. Checked everything I can see, otherwise.

Ideas?
