Betting the flop is essentially a semi-bluff. He isn't folding a pair and he isn't folding Ax (particularly the bad ones for you). If you do choose to bet, you want to bet less, because the only thing you really accomplish is winning the pot from worse hands (i.e. protection), and a bet of $160 is more than sufficient for this purpose, unless you have some particular reason to assume this guy is gonna read weakness into that.

Turn shove is super standard given above.

edit: You say he likes to call 3bets and then crai, so this bet is just bad.
