Something that will get you by until you get bigger power supplies is to run the existing power supplies in combined mode. Unfortunately you will lose your power supply redundancy. Here is the command to activate it.
"power redundancy-mode combined"

You only have 5.22 Amps available but each WS-X6748-GE-TX module needs 7.00 Amps @ 42V. See attached release notes - do a search for WS-X6748-GE-TX.
http://www.cisco.com/en/US/docs/switches/lan/catalyst6500/ios/12.2SX/release/notes/ol_14271.html
So you will need to upgrade your power supplies.

Yes. From the same link here are the available power supplies. Make sure you have an IOS that will support them. You should be okay.
