Is that enough time to get into the city? Is the baggage storage at T1 reliable? If not, any suggestions on how to kill time at JFK? From the Port Authority's website, T1 doesn't look like it has all that much to offer.
If you're on time, you easily could be in Manhattan before noon, which would give you 2+ hours to do something. What do you have in mind? Lunch? Museum?
