Just popping in

I found these numbers in a Motor's manual. Can anyone verify that the .001-.002 is the correct cold gap? Thank you in advance.

Secondary sources like Chiltons or Motors may have given suggested cold clearances but I'm pretty confident Packard did not. Yes, doing the adjustment on a hot, running motor isn't a pleasant task, but why not just do it correctly once and be done with it?
The .001" and .002" you've noted are not tappet to valve stem clearances. Hot clearances are 0.004" and 0.006" and cold clearances would be greater, not less.
