Most sensible way to swap in a new cam, new hushers, and adjust the lash? 200 1991

I'll be putting a VX can in my '91 245SE, so I'll be adjusting the valves as needed at the same time. I also want to install new hushsers while I'm in there.

As I understand it, you can't really get accurate measurements for valve lash with brand new hushers, so it's best to take measurements before putting them in. But since I'll be installing a new cam all together that method doesn't really work for me.

Is there a better/faster/more-sensible way to do this than:
1- Remove old cam
2- Install new cam
3- Take measurements
4- Remove new cam
5- Install hushers & shims
6- Reinstall new cam

Thanks
