Routing is:

SFO - ORD - JFK - LHR - INV (40 / 40 / 140 / 40)

The change is on the ORD - JFK section. Leaves me less than an hour for transfer after the SFO - ORD flight, which I'm not particularly comfortable with to be honest (I know a lot of you guys manage insanely quick changeovers, but I don't really do this sort of thing much).
So in that case I would look at asking to change SFO-ORD-JFK to something like SFO-PHX-JFK (i.e. something which means a connection on the west or east coast with a > 2000 mile leg - see post 2 for a list of these 140 TP flights) or if you want a simple life just to SFO-JFK so you earn 140 rather than 80 from SFO-ORD-JFK.
