And for those of us with solid lifters, and aluminum heads on an iron block, your lash will start out less than your spec'd amount, then grow to be more than your spec'd amount, and then shrink back to the spec'd amount for hot lashing, all based on the thermal expansion rates of the different metals. It took me years to figure out that simple, obvious fact.
