Mark,
I've got a 700r4 behind a 402 big block and so far it's been working great. I've got stock heads with a mild port job and a Comp XE274 cam. I'm also running a 3.73 gear. The 3.04 first gear in the tranny w/3.73 rear works great and at 70 mph I'm turning 2300 RPM's. Mine does have a shift kit

The 4 piston calipers may worth more to someone who needs those specific ones for a
restoration. Generally a single piston set similar to yours would go for $250-400.
Many folks stay away from the 4 piston due to percieved problems

From one '68 guy to another, they are worth at least $300-$400, probably
more depending on what all is included, and the overall condition of the
pieces. I would definitely have been interested in your setup just 2 months
