Help from Mechanical Engineer types...

I have a transmission dilema:-

I want to run a T56 in the Elky but I've got a foot injury which may end making this too difficult. I'm currently exploring auto options, but if I can keep the clutch I'll be very happy!

I want to know what sort of actuator I should be looking for to operate a clutch electro-mechanically. My best option come across so far would be an electromagnetic actuator on the clutch pedal itself. The force/stroke required will obviously depend on the pedal ratio, im guessing short stroke/high force would be best to get fast engagement/disengagement.

It would have to have variable force to provide progressive operation of the clutch. I would wire it up with an electrical syncro to a trigger/lever or even a button potentiometer on the shifter.

This has been done before but all the options I've found have been cost prohibitive so any help/hints/tips would be greatly appreciated!
