F-16's powered with the Pratt & Whitney F100-PW-200 have a normal intake (the small one)
From block 40 on, they where powered with the General Electric F-110-GE-100, but i don't know for sure iff these had the larger intakes.
From block 50/52, they are powerded with the more powerful F110-GE-129, these one's have the larger intake (Big Mouth intake).
I hope this is enough
