I'd set the amp just beyond breakup and use my volume knob for cleans. If I need more gain, I'll use the sun face.
Will this setup deliver tones similar to Joe Bonamassa, Jimi Hendrix, Stevie Ray Vaughan, Jimmy Page, David Gilmour (I know this setup is in no way ideal for DG stuff but still...), Warren Haynes, etc.
Are these realistic expectations and can you think of any improvements?
What can I expect from this setup?

Re: What can I expect from this setup?
That's a great setup! If you can't get it done with that, then I don't know what to tell you. I would throw in a tube screamer style pedal, especially for the SRV stuff, but you can always tweak your eq to get a similar effect. You can get close to the Gilmour sound with a good boost up front to help give you more sustain. Another key to that will be a subtle use of modulation. You have to remember that, even though he used a muff, he used another pedal after that (I forget which, off the top of my head) to compensate for the scooped sound.
