Lucas oil stabilizer is just a thicker weight oil withvery littleanti-wearadditives than your MC rated oil so you are adding more viscosity improver and diluting the additive package in your 20w50. It will quiet an engine because the thicker the oil is the more cushion you get between moving mechanical parts especially noticable in the valvetrain. But you are weakening your anti-wear additives in your oil by using it. If you want thicker go with a 20w60 like redline. OR mix a quart of straight 50w in with your 20w50 and you will get the same result. OR if you are down South just go straight 50 or 60w.
