There are no substitutes for 6540 ROMs.

2316 ROMs can be replaced with either a 2516 or 2716 EPROM, but this does
not work in all cases.  It is better to remove both 2316 ROMs in a 4K 
block and replace them with one 2532 (not 2732) EPROM which can be placed
in either of the original 2316 sockets.  

2332 ROMs can be replaced with 2532 (not 2732) EPROMs.

Just for completeness:

2364 ROMs can be replaced by Motorola 68764 or 68766 EPROMs, except in the
IEEE disk drives where they will not work because of timing differences.

23128 and 23256 ROMs are completely compatible with 27128 and 27256
EPROMs.
