Make sure it has the Series II engine. The Series I Kohler KT twins had lubrication problems. If it has a rear lift kit that is worth some $$$. Does it have hydro-lift or manual? If the blower is an easy fits thats another $100-$250 of value. In tip-top shape a 917 with blower and 48" deck could bring close to $700-$1000. An average good runner w/deck is probably $400-$700 depending on the location and timing.

"carburetor rebuild" could be masking bad engine problems. Maybe carb is ok and it is really an engine problem.
