The 8 minute change is at Domodossola which, from memory, only has three or so platforms, plenty of time!
The 13 minutes at Milan is also plenty. There are only half a dozen or so platforms where the fast trains pull in and leave from.
I can recommend taking the first class ticket on the train from Rome to Milan as well. The Frecciarossa are as close to a Ferrari as you could possibly have in a train, leather seats and all!
Sweet or salty is the question
Depending on your schedule I can highly recommend the Bernini Express (Tirano to St Moritz) and then the Glacier Express from St Moritz to Zermatt. They are both spectacular!!
You could spend a night in St Moritz if you have the time?
