Does anyone know where to get the braided fiberglass/kevlar covering similar to what Carl uses on his harnesses and Greg uses on his fuels hoses? I've been looking but haven't found anything similar.

There are a LOT of options out there:

I think what I have is the "easy cut" stuff:

I have a spool of every size, made a few harnesses with this stuff.
I like it because you can cut it with any sharp knife / scissors, other may require a "hot knife" to melt the ends so they don't fray.
I use the self-fusing silicone tape to finish off the ends.
Todd with the twin turbo has been using this same material for many years to make his harnesses, after many years it holds up fine to under hood temps.
Anything in a "high heat" area is a different story. I use products from DEI:

Their "Clean Cut" product is the same stuff I purchased from McMaster Carr. Has the same logo on the spool:
