No, they are 3.54:1

However aftermarket 4.11:1 crownwheel and pinion sets are available (also 4.1:1, but not as strong due to smaller teeth).

I don't know about fitting into series housings, and you need to specify what series.

The various holden 6's don't have the low down grunt of a v8 to use RR diffs, which is why series ( I,II & III) had 4.7:1 diffs (What you have now). Off road, it's fine - on road, if you want to venture onto the highway, the usual thing is to fit an overdrive, rather than changing diffs.

My dad used to run the 3.54 CWPs in his SIIa, but it also had a holden V8(253), otherwise you could try and find yourself a good overdrive unit....
