Ordinarily I would say that your raise sizing needs to be a little bigger, since your raising range on the flop is reasonably polarized, but since you’re fairly shallow and can still jam turn once you get called, I think your sizing is okay.
At this stack size you’re not really in a position to slowplay a strong-but-vulnerable hand. There are definitely some bad turn cards that can kill your action and the last thing you want is to fold away a bunch of equity or fail to get max value. I think raising flop is necessary and good.
You’re basically forced to jam all turn cards – villain is unlikely to have much 5x or 4x in their bet-call range so a four-straight isn’t too scary, and if you think villain is 3-bet shoving some club draws versus your flop raise then even a club turn isn’t particularly scary. Ultimately you’ll have two pair on the turn in a roughly 1:1 SPR spot, so you have very little choice but to jam all turns. If you do decide there’s a particular turn card that nails your opponent’s bet-call flop range, it becomes a check-fold, but that’s unlikely.
