Do I need bigger gears for this combo?

Trick flow twisted wedge heads (ported and polished by brodix). Comp XE 284 Hydraulic flat tappet with 1.6 roller rockers giving me .544 lift.

Will I need more than my 3.73 gears?
I got a T-5 so I don't need converter.
Thanks

Thanks!

BTW,
What color is your car?
and
How much will I need in parts to do a t-56 swap? Including driveshaft. I am thinking of this and if it is less than 1500 I might be up to it (I figure I can get a used t-56 for 1100).

Thanks

my car is black. i dont have an exact total but mine cost me like 1400 after it was all said and done. you dont need another driveshaft the one you have will be fine if you are using the t-5 driveshaft.
