Hi p,
This info is from the "chevelle stuff" site.
As 530 the engine goes in your car like most bb engines from the era.

The ED suffix was used in 66 & 67. The H could indicate Holley (intake manifold indicates that as well)
ED 1966 Chevelle 396 325 Mt
ED 1967 Chevelle 396 325 Mt

Another useful source is Mortec Chevy Small-Block Enthusiasts. It says for Small-Block enthusiasts, but also includes Big-Block as well as W-motor (348-409) info.
