Frankly, I would suggest you make them myself. Indeed, this is exactly what I did because I wanted a mount with a different vertical height above the side rails. ie. get a better tail shaft alignment to the diff pinion.

The whiteline units are made to replace the Holden round donut type unit which has shown some shearing problems. ie. The standard holden mounts are great for NVH issues but have little resistance to lateral movements.

If you search on LS1.com.au I think you'll find these (Whiteline) are very reliable. Providing you protect them with the GM heat shields.
