The starter switch (button) really doesn't take "load" it places 12v on the starter solenoid which provides contact to complete the starter motor circuit which energizes the starter.

On the question of a momentary switch early Jaguars & Healeys used the Lucas button that Finish line and others offer for horn/starter as a starter switch if you are looking for "originality" if not check out Radio shack as mentioned.

good luck,
