Define "recomended". All aftermarket cams are recomended, as they all will be a vast improvement over the stockers. More so than on a stock displacement motor. A bigger motor will "tame" a came somewhat, but I don't think you'll see it peak out a a lesser rpm.

If you're mechanic really believes 272s did nothing, then I would find a new one

Granted, they certainly aren't my first choice for a stroker build (i run the 101400s as the 3xs weren't available when I ordered these) but they will still make plenty of power in a good set up.
