You dont want to load the atlernator like that. Too much load on the alternator will surely kill it! The voltage is not more consistant from the alternator. The alt has a voltage regulator built into it and will change its charge rate to suite the load being put on the battery. The battery not only powers all of the electronics in the car, it also acts as an electrical buffer. Capacitors do the same buffering job in a heavy hitting sound system. You will never find a GM wiring schematic where the atlernator directly powers anything in the car.
