Actually, since each EPROM is now 4x bigger than necessary, couldn't you do
all this with just one chip?  The circuit must be decoding a couple of
high-order address lines to drive the chip-select pins of the other three
EPROMs, so you'd just tie those two address lines to the unused address pins
of your new EPROM.
