A couple more side effects for the OP:

• Wider LSA gives for fuel mileage. Narrower LSA with more overlap allows more unburned fuel to go right out the exhaust at the lower RPM's.
• Wider torque band applications also call for a wider LSA.
• Turbo engines are usually better off with a wider LSA to get a better peak pressure on the exhaust pulse, which can help the get the turbo spooled up at a lower RPM
