I did ck my battery it should be able to take a few 330 amp cracks if it had to.
Not when it keeps tripping the dual 50 amp breakers. As we've said, there's good reason to wire the winch (or its external contactor) directly to the battery terminals - - as Honda does when a winch is installed OEM. The single caveat is that wiring needs to be done with care and terminals or chafing points insulated properly so there's little risk of a shorted wire causing problems.
