I've never thought of these cars as being fat asses. This '83 has a BBO 455 (iron heads even) and still only weighs 3,340lbs (number from scale is in the upper right hand corner). Compared to modern muscle, these cars are lightweights:

It's a 455 BBO, iron block/heads, aluminum intake, headers and axle dumps, 8.5" rear, TH350 trans. Also has A/C delete, emissions & electronics delete, and an aluminum GM hood from a diesel model. I don't remember how much gas was in the tank though.
