FWIW, you could open your V8 starting template in SU2013 and save it using File>Save as template... At least you'll get the units, style and camera position that you're used to.
You'll need to set up your toolbars where you want them. And you can make custom toolbars to include the native tools you use and skip those you don't use at all.
Thanks for the help. I figured it was likely to be easy as it usually is with Sketchup, but your verification is good for reassurance.
