Might help to post a photo of the underside of the chassis so we can see what you have missing. Some use M4, some use M3. Odds are, since it's 1/8th, they are probably M4 low profile if they are for the engine mount.

Oddly, the parts explosion for the Hyper SS only shows 4. 4 for the plate that the motor mount bolts too, but none for the motor mounts themselves. Must be held on by divine intervention.

I take that back, if I scroll up through the manual, I see that it uses flat heads and cap heads. Flat heads (countersunk/flush mount) screws for the plate and low profile cap heads for the mounts themselves:

Take the engine mount to Home Depot or other major hardware stores and look for metric screws. Most non US manufacturers use metric.
