The LS crank will give a little bit more displacement since it has a longer stroke. I'm not sure on the ITR though...

gsr and itr cranks are the same stroke at 87.2mm and the ls crank is a 89mm stroke if you use the ls crank you need to use ls rods

if you already have rods thats reason enough.

but if you need a crank and dont have rods, do the ls.
