Cisco 4900 switches at the core

Hi all. I was wondering if anyone here can provide some advice for my situation. So currently I have 2 Cisco 4900's at the core of my network doing HSRP for all the internal vlan's. The 2 4900's have 2 10gigabit modules with 10 ports in each module. There are 9 stacks of 4 Cisco 2960's connecting to them at the access layer, 1 stack of 5 3750's, another 2 stacks of 2 2960's and 1 stack of 3 3850's. Now my issue is that we are expanding a part of our building and need to put in 2 additional stacks of 4 2960x switches to accommodate the new area. Will all of this be too much for the core's to handle or do you guys think it should be fine? I know that without looking at the environment and how much traffic we get its hard to just guess but any insight will be appreciated. Thanks.
