will using lucas oil stabilizer make a 2.9 harder to start at 25 below zero or colder

will using lucas oil stabilizer make the 2.9's engine stiffer to turn over, when it gets 25 below zero, and colder outside...

has anyone experienced using lucas oil stabilizer with their engine's oil, before, in the winter time, when it gets 25 below zero, and colder outside...

and did you experience any noticable difference how your engine turned over, for starting...

my 2.9 engine has a block heater, already, installed in the driver's side engine head, in place of the engine head's front frost plug...

along with using a engine oil pan magnetic heater, I'm using 5-30w motor oil...

Well if it thickens your oil it will be a tad stiffer, I run 5-w30 in winter and a block heater

Definitely slower to crank over...that stuff is pretty thick. If it's that cold, Dirtsquirt has some good advice.
