cracked exhaust manifold on 232

Boy, I changed my maniufold yesterday on my American and the darn thing
about fell apart when I unbolted it from the block. It had all kinds of
cracks, some hair-line and some quite wide and long. Car sounds a lot
quieter now but doesn;t idle any smoother.
When I set the idle in Park at a rather fast 700 rpm, when i put it in Drive
and the engine slows down, it almost gets loping and rough. I can't seem to
get a "compromise" setting that will be fairly smooth in Drive and still not
jump into gear when I take it out of Park and put it in Drive. Any ideas
what I might try with this situation?
