Then I think a wire from the push start button tied into the wire at the Safty neutral switch that go's to the starter should work. Tie it in an leave everything the same. But just thinking out loud. But I do think this would work. Artie

Its easy once you get a hang of it docking just requires a bit more planing.
Out of curiosity, what is the HP lose between a crash box and shiftable trans? Is it that significant to put up with the hassle?
