From the Wikipedia article on the Triumph Slant-4 engine:
"The UK engineering and consultancy company Ricardo, which did have a general engine-development contract with Triumph, was not directly involved with its design, but was usually kept informed of anything new being planned. Ricardo was involved in developing a new engine for Saab, for use in their new 99 model. When that development proved too expensive and risky to produce, Ricardo, knowing the slant-4 was almost ready for production, brought Saab into contact with Triumph."
I did say the 9-5 engine was several times removed, but the Saab "B" and "H" 4-cylinder engines can both trace their lineage back to Triumph.
