A "built" motor is one where the large majority of the internal parts have been replaced or upgraded. Pistons, rods, head porting, are a couple things.

Resleeving the cylinders is essentially replacing them. The block is made of aluminum and the cylinders are "sleeves" for the pistons to move in, made out of iron. Resleeving the block means installing new cylinders.
