The Power Computing specs for the PowerBase called for 168-pin 5-volt 60 ns EDO DIMMs (which is to say, not FPM DIMMs) with a 1k or 2k refresh rate. There are a number of vendors. One place to consider is Other World Computing. I've bought FPM DIMMs from them with good results, and they advertise a lifetime warranty. They're also quite involved in the Mac upgrade world, and they work with Power Computing users regularly. See: http://eshop.macsales.com/ I think you'll find 64 MB RAM for less than $25 from them, and perhaps from other vendors as well. You can also pay much more. Discussions I've read seem inconclusive whether $100 RAM is better or different than $25 RAM. (Similarly, I read where some Power Computing users have great success with OS 9, or IE 5.1, or whatever, while others report otherwise. Your experience may differ.)
