Keep in mind that you are pushing brake fluid backward through the
system, back to the master cylinder. Take off the master cylinder
cap and make sure there is enough room in there for the returning
fluid. If not, take some out. If someone has topped off the brake
fluid at some point, there will be too much when the pistons are
pushed in. Leave the cap off and monitor the level as you push the
piston in. Remember, spilled brake fluid is very bad for paint,
unless you are using silicone.
Here is an example of a tool used for pushing in pistons:

I don't know if it will work for an MGA. Mine is a 1500 with drums
all around.
