marina or ital calipers are what you after.

alternatively you can fit mgb calipers with a few mods.. i will let you know more / with photos etc when i have completed the job.

the advantage being they are far more abundant / cheaper outright purchase etc etc

I know the brake pads are the same as the Dolomite, maybe the calipers are as well?
