Are you wanting to use PETSc or PyLith?  If you want to use PyLith and your meshes are in a standard format, it may be possible to import them into either Cubit or LaGriT, and they can then convert them into a form readable by PyLith.  Otherwise, I'm not sure what your options might be.

Cheers,
Charles
