Anyone try a Grabner C mouthpiece? Seems a little bit shorter.

Nothing here. Actually I talked with Lefteris Bournias about your issue and he said that he wouldn't expect it to be different.
He uses the same mouthpieces for his Bb to G clarinets and has no problems. Among his 20+ clarinets we couldn't find a C one.

Now someone with his experience can definitely put many corrections to the pitch just by blowing differently.

Also you should be looking for a Soprano clarinet mouthpiece.

I did a quick search:
these are pricey...

The thing is that C clarinets are not popular cause they are considered too "bright". You may also try an Eb mouthpiece or call a woodwind shop and ask specifically for one.
