Hobby Boss M26 Engine Compartment

Armor/AFV Cold War

I have this kit on my bench, quitting the Tamiya version in disgust. The kit does have an engine compartment, but I’m wondering if the engine is like the actual one, or should I even bother with it because I’m showing a running tank anyway.

What is the problem with the Tamiya kit?

Thanks. They seemed to have gotten it right after all.
