I wouldn't worry too much about .001" too loose on an exhaust valve. Too tight I might, but not too loose. Everything swells and gets tighter when hot, and indeed too tight will cause burnt valves. Too loose will cause noise, but no harm.

Bear in mind, I'm talking about use as a daily driver, if you're planning something special for this engine I might try harder for the middle of the range.
