You the man mark thank you, thank you . put that switch in and it all works. I went through that last test just blindly following your instructions not understanding what the purpose was .
I installed the overkill switch and vola. Working, run light stays on fwd/reverse works, couldn't be happier.

Wow that was fast! Glad I could help- you missed an "i" it's "voila" 
It's always ok to upsize the ratings on a contactor as long as it fits in the physical space provided, has the same coil voltage, etc.
It'll just last that much longer- it's not like a car where the part has to match exactly

PS Tacoma is a nice area- I remember going thru there as a kid with my folks
we stopped at Tumwater to see the Oly brewery too- fun

Yeah between my spelling and auto correct i should proof everything . just got back from spending almost the lathe purchase price on the mobile oils which came in 5 gal buckets. Life time supply I suspect. Thanks again you saved the day.
