Good question.  (What engine calls for .013 cold?)  One can always 
just try it, set them cold then go for a spin and measure them.  I'd 
try it myself except for two things.  I'm on the Maine coast and 
rather far from my little TRs, and I'd worry about burning my 
fingers.  There are more reasons for setting them cold than just the 
target spec!
