Emax

I think the important thing is the suffix at the end.  During the time of competition, there were only 3 recognized timing groups, 60ns,70ns, and 80ns.  I am pretty sure those are 'minimum' numbers, so for example, if the Emax is looking for a 70ns timing, a 60ns SHOULD work as well, but an 80ns would not because it is too slow.

So as long as the chips have the suffix -7 or -6 you should be fine, but -8 I would expect errors.
