Default Gearing question for early 2000s Trinity motor.

I just finished getting an old TA05 that my cousin gave me up and running (the car hasn't been used since '08).
I'm a complete noob to most RC stuff so I just wanna make sure that the gearing combo I have installed right now won't risk overheating or killing the motor.
See below for the part specs.
  • Motor: Trinity Cobalt Pro Tweaked (Part# TRI2002)
    • RPM: 19,178@ 5.0v
    • 27T Brushed
  • Gears:
    • Spur: 70T
    • Pinion: 22T
  • Battery:
    • 7.2v 3600MaH 6-cell NiHM
  • ESC:
    • Tamiya TEU-101BK
Secondary question, anyone have recommendations for cheap brushless ESC and motor. Thinking about changing out the old electronics when I have the chance so I can use some 3s LiPOs I got kicking around.
