Also, ask the manufacturer of the cam if the clearance specification is to be set when the engine is hot or cold.Gary Hodson

The term "hot cam" is just a descriptive and when it comes to things such as valve timing, lift and profiles specifics matter if you expect to improve performance
As Perry suggested make contact with whoever made the cam or determine its profile and have someone who knows what they are doing give you a recommendation as to valve clearance. Otherwise you are simply guessing.
