Any tips on moving the alternator to drive shaft for charging?

I have a Chevy S10 and I want to get more horse power. I was wondering if anyone has any thoughts on moving the alternator so that the drive shaft (which runs anyhow) turns the alternator to charge the battery.
It is my husband's idea. He likes
The only way (not by drive shaft) to eliminate the alternator when horsepower is needed, is to put a switch on the output of the alt. When you want to go, turn the switch off. To drive normally and to charge the battery, turn it back on.

2010 Range Rover Sport
The Range Rover Sport reaffirms its status as the most exciting and dynamic member of the Land Rover range with a comprehensive package of engineering and design changes for the 2010 model year.
The vehicle’s stylish new appearance signals a transformation under the skin. Two powerful new engines debut. The LR-V8 naturally aspirated develops 375 hp and 375 lb.-ft. of torque, while the LR-V8 5.0-liter Supercharged engine cranks out a towering 510 hp and 461 lb.-ft. of torque. Inside, enhanced levels of interior craftsmanship and refinement greet the occupants and significant changes to both on-road and off-road driving dynamics improve the drive, wherever it may be.
The introduction of new systems such as Adaptive Dynamics, and the addition of the road-focused Dynamic Mode program to Terrain Response system ensure that off-road capability is kept at the expected class-leading level.
The Range Rover Sport’s stylish, muscular exterior provides a cleaner, more sculpted look. Striking signature LED headlamps combine with a new two-bar grille, front bumpers and fenders to create a more sporting and aerodynamic stance. At the rear, new light clusters and a revised bumper design mirror the smoother front-end.
The interior has been comprehensively redesigned, using higher quality materials, soft-touch finishes and superior craftsmanship to create an even more premium environment true to the Range Rover brand.
New engines deliver exceptional performance and refinement
The most significant changes to the 2010 Range Rover Sport are in powertrains; a new 510-hp 5.0-liter LR-V8 supercharged engine and a 375-hp 5.0 liter LR-V8 naturally aspirated engine.
The LR-V8s are all-new and designed by the Jaguar Land Rover powertrain team using an impressive collection of state-of-the-art technologies. They were developed with an emphasis on delivering a smooth, refined and responsive performance, without a corresponding increase in fuel consumption. Both meet the stringent ULEV2 emissions standards.
