I think Morosso makes them. My buddy has solid motor mounts on his car.

What is the purpose of going with a solid mount? When should one go to a solid mount? Are solid mounts better or no different than using a motor plate?

I got my solids from Moroso.
I do not know what K-member you are using and it really doesnt matter but note, there is NO play in the mounts, it took me 3 weeks of pulling/cussing/drilling/etc to get the ONE Driver side mount on, I am using a BMR unit that has the intergrated mount on the passenger side. I eventually got the thing in there but I would not recommend that set up based on my experience, I would get the BMR unit without the integrated mount, this would allow alittle more movement in the parts. And yes, that is why you go with solids is to remove most of the movement but this was a PITA....

Let me get the car back up and running and see how I like the solid mount, it might be forsale if I dont like it....and it has already been clearanced for easier installation....
