I would try one of these companies.
hotchkis
pst
And I know Van Steel has them, because he lists them in his catalog. He can actually rebuild those for you if you send them to him.

I meant rebuild the strut rods.
If your shock mounts were like mine they were Toast. Pricey little item.


I've used www.fastcorvette.com in the past with good results.

mine are kinda rough.. the shaft is good on passenger side but threads are "fair"
on the drivers side.. the shaft is kinda worn and wavy.. threads are good..

Shark,
I agree with you, despite using the proper tool, I destroyed my threads and had to replace my shock mounts too.
I have found that you end up having to replace just about everything that is connected to the part that you originally intended to replace.
These cars can truly be a money pit (still love 'em).
Ben, I know that you dropped a pretty big wad already, but for another $80 (plus shipping) you might as well continue to ask Santa for new parts.
Besides, I like the way all of the new parts fit together.
Good luck,
Anthony
