AE86 ( rough cold starts )

I have a block heater so things are ok when i remember to plug it in .... but when i forget it makes this horrid sound when it is like -5°-10° & colder.

It almost stalls and for a few cranks it sounds like metal is hitting metal

Is this normal behaviour ? for an old car ?
