I'm trying to get a feel for what these are worth. A friend has both in cherry condition.
 
You might Get a better estimate asking on v8buick.com. I'm going to say it's not worth much more than a regular th400. The input shaft, pump and valve body are the only pieces that separate it from a regular th400. The switch pitch parts aren't too difficult to find and will go in any pre metric th400. So maybe $50 more than a comparable th400. I see stock th400's go for $150-$300.

The converter is going to be questionable. Even rebuilt ones from daaco Are hit or miss. If you can prove it works, it's probably worth $150. There are also two sizes and one is more desirable than the other. They won't hold much more than low 12's high 11 second power in a big muscle car. So, they aren't highly sought after by drag racers, but it's a cool option for a cruiser with a hefty cam.
