Default Downthrust On A Twin

thrust line is about 2 inches above chord line how does that correlate into degress of downthrust?just like 1 degree of wing sweep is egual to 1 degree of dihedral.the idea here was the down thrust would help to carry the dead engine high,by trying to pull the good engine down and would help slow or stop the rollthis is a scale private type plane so aerobatics are not a major concern. easy safe scale flight is.
