Could a person clone a set of of VS Balloon Fight Roms

Hey all,
I was just reading this website:

http://www.johnsarcade.com/nintendo_vs_ppu_info.php

If I read it correctly, a person with 2 copies of excite bike could clone or burn the roms for Ballon fight. My logic is as follows.
1. Every VS game uses 1 CPU, 1 PPU(color chip), and 5-6 Roms with a few exceptions
2. Balloon fight uses the same CPU and PPU as Excite bike(I think).
3, Shouldn't the conversion be as simple as burning 12 Balloon Fight roms and installing a pair of Excite Bike CPU and PPUs on a VS board.

Does anyone know for sure. I may be able to pick up a RED TENT with 4 boards and I need to know what's possible. Thanks in advance.
 
I would think so, but I just failed at getting my Balloon Fight roms to work. I used both PPUs from Goonies and Excitebike and the 12 Balloon Fight roms. All I get is one purple screen and one orange screen.

Either the eproms were not burned correctly or they were damaged during shipping. I'm pretty sure I installed them correctly. They are labeled and I just installed them to the corresponding sockets.

Any Balloon Fight owners want to chime in and possibly help me get this working? Is it something I'm doing wrong or is it most likely the roms?
