Why not just tie into the PCM for control? You are using the E40 PCM? I can probably provide the pinouts if you need them.

Use the blue wire to the L terminal on the LS2 alternator. I have a dummy light so no resistor is required. I believe the white wire is not used at this point. You have to convert your Nova harness to eliminate the external regulator by jumping the wires at your regulator, connect blue and brown together.

Here's a link to painless wiring's pigtail with directions about resistor if you have a gauge.

Another link explaining how to convert to an internal regulator alternator:
