How do you figure?
To adjust valves cold you take the valve covers off once, adjust the valves,
put the covers back on and you're done.
To adjust the valves hot, you have to take the valve covers off, install a
reworked 1/3 cover or equivalent, start and warm up the engine, adjust the
valves while getting hot oil all over yourself, stop the engine, take the
reworked valve covers off, clean up the oily mess, and reinstall the valve
covers.
Gee. I think I'll keep adjusting them cold.
