Villian is a recreational player who's actually pretty good.
For sure a favourite up to 1/2 and maybe 2/4 HU.
Not too much info about how he plays 3-bet pots without initiative.
He is very aggresive though, and barrels with no equity.

Does check-decising have merits on this flop? I'd be more apt to do it with KQ on J97 than on this particular board, but it's a pretty cool play.
Villian is pretty aggressive with draws and random hands.
I have not seen him make any thin value raises.
He's got 77/99/Q9 for value. He's also raise T8/JT/68/AJ and some random nonsense, I'm pretty sure.
Against that range i'm doing alright, but I can't call the turn, so I think I need to 3-bet the flop.
With my backdoor equity and somewhat relevant blockers, I think this makes sense.

Hero checks,
SB bets $340,
Hero calls $340
When he calls, I expect him to have lots of draws, and some of the value hands he raised on the flop.
I've seen him bet pretty merged in single raised pots, so I expect him to bet hands like JT here pretty often.
Getting a ridiculous price and having a gutshot, two jack outs and maybe 3 King outs on top of maybe having the best hand already, I definitely need to call imo.
Should I make a merge bet myself here? I think I can have a strong checking range in this spot, and I'm unlikely to get called by much worse.

Should I c/c or donk jam here?
I'm not if he jams T8 anymore because it's hard to get paid off by worse.
Can I have a balanceed range here by Jamming something like AJ here?
