This URL should contain all you need:

An EPROM PLA can work, with the right EPROM (which is not necessarily 
the fastest you can get), but most of them fail with modules like EasyFlash.

As for the timing... grab the datasheet for the 82S100 or the Fairchild 
93459PC from the net. That's the original bipolar PLA. Its spec is 45ns, 
the fastest EPROM I have ever seen was a 27C256-55, but as I said, speed 
isn't everything.

So far I have enough real PLAs that I didn't have to resort to using an 
EPROM PLA.
