Make sure the MAF sensor is plugged in, the manifolds are bolt on tight, and you didnt forget any vacuum lines, thats the basic rundown...

Well, the exhaust manifold should not stop the car from running so something else must have happend. Like rotaryman said, make sure to check all vacuum lines and anything else you may have moved or taken off when replacing the manifold.
