ive seen that the sweedish ball bearing company SKF have made some all electric brake calipers for mercedes... but they run on 48 volts.. and i have no idea about the controller it takes to run (i wouldnt go this route myself)

another route is a Citroën brake pedal, its all hydraulic, and the pedal is basically a small hydraulic valve that opens up and allows the pressure from the pump and suspension to actuale the brakes... but the seals in the calipers , and rack and pinion would have to be replaced to run on LHM fluid... (also you would neeed a hydraulic accumulator)( wouldnt do this either btw)

I would mount it under the floor with one of those generic, hot rod, underfloor pedals and mount the hydraboost down there as well
