The wear and tear on the clutch is one thing I would be concerned about-those are fairly expensive and time consuming to repair. Now if you could fit an alternator/starter combo that would allow you to use it to start the vehicle instead of the bump start method. In any case what you have done is pretty neat, and since I have a VW Jetta TDI with the ALH motor, and similar IP I may at some point experiment with a similar mod.
