Wondering if anyone would have an idea of value of a 1971 crow Bouey
1971 uncirculated etp 4982894 it is in a set of four consecutives 4982891 -2 -3 -4
Would they be more valuable if I broke them up? Keep 4982891 - 3 together in a set?

It's really tough to say whether the notes would be worth more together or apart.  And by "worth more", I mean how much they would sell for at any point in time.  Buyers can be so fickle.  The 1971 series $10 notes have a numismatic value (according to catalogue) well in excess of face value, and paradoxically, that could be an impediment to getting a good price for these notes.  Internet auction buyers seem to be interested more in low-value consecutive notes and will bid up these types of items while ignoring "good" prices on more valuable material.

I just checked the catalogue, and Crow-Bouey in Unc is $30.  Radar notes of this series are $45 in Unc, so not a substantial premium.  I think keeping them together might be the better choice because buyers trust a grade of Unc more if they see consecutive notes together.  Splitting the radar from the group might make it hard to convince fickle radar collectors that the note is Unc.
