Default question on tuning your sport cams

How do you tune your aftermarket cams?

Do you use a vacuum gauge and get the most vacuum?

Please tell me that's a joke!
I know only 2 ways.
1 with the engine out, degree wheel on crank and dial indicators on cams.
2 (risky on higher CR aplications) playing with the cam gears on the dyno.

i thought these were not radical race cams and it was a drop and bolt on process.
