If I do so on the CCQ, will I get 70 W on 4 ohms or 35 W ?

Depends on the amp. With many SS designs, you get twice the power at the lower impedance, so a 100 Wpc SS amp at 8 ohms will deliver 200 Wpc at 4 ohms.
But that doesn't always hold true with tube amps...my C-J gives 70 Wpc at either 8 ohm or 4 ohm loads....might have something to do with the differences in transformer design between tube and SS amps.
