I have a Cal Spa 2000 which has a 4 hp 230v 2 speed GE pump. Inside the rear cover of the pump is a removeable panel that has a set of contacts on it. One of the contacts is burnt out. Anyone know where I can get this set of contacts. I really dont want to spend $200.00 on another pump just for this set of contacts.

The contacts are just a simple centrifigual switch, used in starting the motor. These can be purchased through a local electric motor supply company. If they are burned out, I would suspect you probably have a bad capacitor, bad bearings, pump that is dragging, or any combination of the above. These contacts rarely burn without external causes.
