We would start with Stayman, if partner shows hearts I splinter 3♠ playing standard methods (xxx, Jxxx, Ax, Axxx is a good slam). We don't play 2♣ followed by 3♣ forcing, if you do then that is also good.
If partner either denies 4M or shows spades, am I going to force to game ? That's an interesting decision.

We are going to game, I will check for 4 hearts on the way.

3♥ is unusual

Yeah, I agree; I assumed he had 5.
Introduce your partner to transfers and tell him you’ll bid 4cd majors up the line
