Those 24's with a stock maf on a car designed for 17#'rs would be really rich. That doesn't explain the front bank and it doesn't explain why it blew. Did you use an optimizer or something else to lean out the fuel with the 24#'rs so that it would run ok? Otherwise I'm surprised it would even idle.

Aren't there chips available for the 95 contours? I would assume there are.

I'm going to start a new post about MAF/Injector calibration so you must read it.
