Martin,
Those are two totally different M4A1 Shermans. THe Tasca kit image you show is a mid-production dry storage M4A1. THe image of the actual M4A1 is a large hatch, late wet storage 76mm Sherman. By the time the 76mm gun and wet storage evolved the M4A1 hull had gone through many changes incorporating thicker hull cast-in areas and angles to accomidate the different style hatches. I wouldn't worry too much about the Tasca accuracy. From what I have seen (without actual measurements) looks very good to me capturing the cast M4A1 dry storage hull.
