Hi Marcello,
 
Way to go!  To answer your questions:
 
1.    Correct.  No pullups needed from output of  373 to the memory.
 
2.    No series resistors needed between PIC outputs  and 373 inputs.  BUT I 
would use pullups on the PIC outputs, because  otherwise they will be in an 
indeterminate state until your PIC software asserts  itself and configures the 
port concerned.
 
3.    Don't forget to tie the INPUTS of all UNUSED  devices in the 374 either 
high or low - it doesn't matter which.  You can  leave the outputs 
unconnected.  You can connect pins like "Output enable"  on the 374 directly to Vss or 
Vcc without difficulty.
 
We are all waiting with bated breath to see if you are successful - but I  
know where my money is!
