The sentence structure is obvious in that peace is the primary subject and holiness the secondary. Therefore my question to you scholars: If you don't follow peace with all men will you see the Lord?

It takes peace as well as holiness. As a matter of a fact, I read the verse to mean that peace is pursued first, and then holiness. Maybe that is because if we can have a peacable relationship with our brother then our sense of holiness remains right. It is amazing how many contend over holiness to the point of losing true peace.
