EFS shocks $90 each.
Front 306/510
Rear 397/654 OR 425/700
Dobinsons are a bit longer I think.

If by OE you mean factory shocks, I dare say you're not gunna be happy. I have 3" Dobinson coils in my GU and the shocks are about 20mm from maxed out ... at neutral height. (May be a little different on GQ but I don't think so)

GU shocks are much longer than GQ ones.
The standard GU shocks are about the same length as the OME 'L' series shocks for a GQ!
