That is a little hot. And no, a cooler thermostat won't help.
How is the airflow through the radiator? Is there a fan shroud? The air should be hot coming through the radiator. If the air is cool, it is not carrying away the heat. Either the air is not flowing through the radiator, or the coolant is not moving through the radiator to be cooled.

The manifold cracks sound harmless as long as there are no vacuum leaks or major exhaust leaks.
